How soon after liposuction can you do gentle or stretch type yoga?

Asked By:BBLRecoverynurse in Woodbury, Mn

I had a laser assisted liposuction on my flanks, bra line, low back and abs. I want to know if I can start doing yoga to help stretch my back with stiffness and muscle. I have the tiny sutures still and it has been actually 1 week today.
