I'm about to do tickle liposuction & I want to know how long before I can go back to work? I work a desk job.

It all depends on how much lipo was done, what areas were treated, and what you do at work. If you have a desk job with minimal physical activity and you have a small area treated, you can work the next day. If you have an active job and had a large area treated, it might take a few more days before you can feel comfortable with activity and exertion.

With so many individual factors that can affect
your recovery, it’s hard to say how long you will be out of action. Do you
smoke? Have you reached your goal weight? Is your diet healthful? All of these
can affect your recovery. While tickle lipo may promise less discomfort during
your treatment, it’s still a cosmetic procedure. I advise my patients to take
at least a week off work after their liposuction, even with options that are
supposedly gentler on the body. Given that you work a desk job, you may be able
to return to work sooner than normal, provided that you feel up to it.

Some of my patients are back at work within 5-7 days, everyone is different but with that type of work its nothing you couldn't handle, keep in mind everyone heals different so this is just an example you may not be ready for work that soon but no one can determine that besides you. 

Tickle liposuction aka power assisted liposuction is a good method of liposuction.  In my practice I recommend that a patient can return to administrative work in about 2 weeks.

Having done literally thousands of Tickle Lipo procedures, I have seen the vast majority of my patients return back to work within 1-2 days, especially for those with a desk job.
The short downtime is secondary to the Tickle technology which minimizes the amount of tissue damage as part of the procedure. Less tissue damage, less inflammation, less pain and therefore quicker return to work. Those physicians that recommend prolonged time off work are, more than likely, not using Tickle Lipo.
Good choice on choosing Tickle.
Best,

Few issues are presented. #1 You provided NO medical info so very hard to advise recovery time. i.e. your weight , amount of lipo planned, etc. #2. "Tickle Liposuction" is just another se=ll tool for any type of lipo/ It offers NOTHING special. Maybe you need to seek more in person opinions with ONLY boarded PSs in Miami!
