How Many Minutes Should I Be Massaging The Lumpy Areas Post Liposuction?

mama-c
Should I be massaging in circles for about 5-10 minutes each time or should I be doing this for longer periods of time. With work, I only get a chance to do it 5-10 minutes in the morning and in the evening. Any other suggestions to help with the healing process and smoothing the lumps.
