Is it okay to have Vaser Lipo a week before going on holiday?

Thank you for your question. VASER Lipo surgery's recovery time is around 6 - 7 days and after the surgery, first 12-24 hours recommended for rest. The amount of fat removed and extensiveness of the liposuction can also play a determinative role in the recovery process. 
However, typically, most patients need 1-2 weeks for completely healed and getting back into their routine. 
In my practice, I usually recommend my patients to not being in a rush in the recovery phase. If there any unexpected healing problems occur in the recovery process, the best decision is contacting with your surgeon.

Hello jennybatten,
Thanks for your questions! Typically, the recovery time required for VASER Lipo is around 7 - 9 days, making this safe and effective procedure very convenient to my patients. During VASER Lipo, the surgeon selects the area to be treated and uses the ultrasound-assisted device to liquefy the fat cells, leaving the surrounding nerves, blood vessels and connective tissue unaffected. By only melting fat, the VASER leads to more rapid healing and smoother results. I would recommend you setting up an in-person consultation with an experienced plastic surgeon. He/she would assess your candidacy for VASER lipo and you will have the opportunity to discuss your specific needs and aesthetic goals. Good luck and may God bless you! Dr. De La Cruz.  

For those who work in an office-type setting, a week is typically more than enough time to recover, before returning to work.  Most patients with office jobs return to work within 2-3 days.  If your job is more physical, take a week and a half to two weeks off.
