Can I workout my arms after lower body tumescent liposuction?

Asked By:gardn198 in Los Angeles, CA

Hi, I decided not to get lipo on my arms because I heard it's the most complained about area regarding results. I'd like to start working out my arms but I will be recovering from lipo to abdomen, waist, flanks, back, maybe bra strap area, and thighs. How soon after lipo to those areas can I lift light weights with just my arms?
