How quickly can I return to exercising after lipo suction?

Talk about your activity level with your surgeon, he/she is in the best position to guide you.
However, my general rule is that you can resume treadmill activity with a MPH that is equal to your week of recovery i.e. Week 1 = 1MPH, Week 2 = 2MPH, etc.

Thank you for your question. I always recommend to my patients to start exercises tend six weeks after PO, gradually: first, gentle walks without sweating, then, you can go to the gym to do aerobics, and, after four months you can stats with machines exercise and start with light weights, and, if there are no problems, only six months after PO may charge "free weights".
Respectfully,Dr. Emmanuel Mallol Cotes.

Thanks for the question. After a week your surgery area is totally healed and yes you can do gym and also do other activities. I wish you all the best.

Thank you for your question.  Every surgeon has his/her own protocol for returning to the gym.  In my practice I allow my patients to return to light cardio (elliptical, seated bicycle, treadmill) after 3 weeks, and no weight lifting, yoga training or weight bearing exercises until 6 weeks post-op.  Best of luck to you.

You surgeon will have a protocol specific for their practice.  However, it is best to wait until you are pain free before resuming exercise.

Thank you for your question.  As a general rule, patients should defer to their operating surgeon's guidelines with regards to post-operative care including exercise, heavy lifting, compression garment use or non-use, etc...  In my practice, I ask that patients refrain from all exercise and heavy lifting for four weeks following their surgical procedure.  It is important that patients ambulate or leisurely walk around following surgery to promote good circulation, but exercising too soon can compromise your healing and increase the amount of post-operative swelling that a patient can expect to have.  Best of luck!

Liposuction recovery varies from
patient to patient.We generally
recommend that patients take a week off from work following this
procedure.Occasionally, patients are
able to return to work even sooner.Patients usually resume all their normal activities within six weeks
following surgery without restrictions.We
feel that exercise facilitates recovery, and because of this we encourage
physical activity.However, strenuous
activity and heavy lifting are usually avoided for five to six weeks following
liposuction.It’s important to realize
that every patient’s life situation is somewhat unique.For this reason, it’s important that every
patient discuss their situation with their plastic surgeon.Your surgeon should be able to make an
appropriate recommendation based on your post-operative progress.

Moderate exercise can be resumed after one week, depending on the size of the area and how many areas are involved. But you should ask your surgeon.

I generally advise that patients wait at least 3 weeks before they start exercising again. Please make sure to start off slowly.  However, you should follow your surgeon's instructions as they may have different guidelines.

Light walking but not running begins immediately after surgery once you are home. Normal activity may be resumed at 2 weeks post operation to tolerance and that would include elliptical and light cardio.  In general, patients may return to office work 3-5 days after the operation, and 14 days for more active employment.  After the operation, exercises are recommended, such as walking immediately and progressive activities beginning on the 14th day, in order to minimize the adhesions between the skin and the deeper tissues. Walking, swimming, or a stationary bicycle can usually begin in a few days after surgery. Specific time periods for resumption of daily activities, work, and exercise with be further discussed by your surgeon post operation.

I reccomend my patient wait 1 week before resuming aerobic excercise and 2 weeks before resuming any weight training.  I think most importantly, you need to wear good compression and keep incisions clean.
