How Long Should I Wait After Liposuction To Start Exercising Again?

The standard recovery time with most procedures is 6 weeks. It is then where most patients can return to normal activity. Liposuction is an easier recovery and tends to be quicker so depending on your healing, you may be able to return sooner. I would continue follow up with your plastic surgeon and ask questions. Then he/she may release you sooner than your 6 week mark.

I usually tell patients to take it easy for 2 weeks - walking is good, but nothing too strenuous - and then slowly increase activity up until the 6 week mark.  At 6 weeks, full activity is allowed (weightlifting, pilates, contact sports, etc).  Good luck!
