I do 2 SoulCycle classes + a kettlebells weight class a week. I also run about 5k once, maybe twice a week. I love my weekly classes and don't want to miss out for long. How long will I be off my exercise? (I'm 45, 5'5", 155lbs and 26BMI. I want to get smartlipo on inner thighs and saddlebags. They just won't budge!)

Answer: Liposuction Recovery For the most part, recovery from liposuction is easily manageable. Since clothing can conceal areas that have been sculpted, most patients are back at work after just a couple of days. You will just need to wear a tight-fitting elastic compression garment during your first week to help the skin adhere. At a week to 10 days, you can remove the garment to shower, though you'll likely have to wear it for an additional week. Lipo is great for instant-gratification seekers, but don't fret if you still see imperfections in your shape several weeks later. It can take 4 months, even a year, to get an accurate picture of how the body will look once the swelling subsides and everything settles into place. Lipo patients who started out especially overweight will have to bide their time before realizing their dream results, because it takes several weeks for skin to redrape over the new area and for tissue to heal completely.

Answer: SmartLipo Recovery Thank you for your question. One of the greatest benefits of SmartLipo is its short recovery period versus traditional liposuction. SmartLipo helps shorten liposuction recovery times with most patients taking only a day off from work with minimal recovery time. I generally recommend avoiding strenuous exercise for at least 1 week. Each patient is different depending the area treated, the amount of fat removed, your genetic tendencies, skin type and natural healing abilities. For more information, I recommend getting a in person consultation with a board-certified dermatologist.
