When can I return to work and working out after Vaser lipo? (Photo)

Hello RSMember3102. Thank you for your question regarding the timeline for returning to work and working out after VASER liposuction.

Based on your description and the provided photo, the recommendations you received are quite accurate. You should be able to return to lifting weights approximately 2 to 3 weeks after undergoing VASER liposuction. This timeline allows your body sufficient time to heal and reduces the risk of complications.

Regarding your work as a hairstylist and Pilates instructor, you should be able to return to these activities approximately 3 to 4 days post-procedure. This is generally a safe timeline for returning to less strenuous activities and allows you to resume your professional responsibilities without significantly impacting your recovery.

Given your excellent physical condition and low body fat, your recovery might be smoother and faster, but it's always important to listen to your body and avoid pushing yourself too hard too soon. Make sure to follow your surgeon's specific post-operative care instructions to ensure optimal healing.

I hope this answers your question. Good luck with your VASER liposuction procedure. When seeking this procedure, always choose an experienced, Board-certified plastic surgeon who has performed thousands of VASER procedures.

Sincerely,

J. Timothy Katzen, MD, FASMBS, FICS

Hello Dear RSMember3102
It is Dr. Hong from Fresh Plastic Surgery Clinic South Korea, Seoul. Basically, hard labor and power exercise are recommended at least 1 month after OP. For walking, daily life or light exercises there is not limitations, but you just can feel some discomfort (numbness or pain close to muscle pain)
Don't forget to wear garment as well!
Best Regards
