Liposuction Recovery

Liposuction recovery can take several weeks. At our Fairfield County, Connecticut plastic surgery center, we do everything that we can to make our patients' recoveries as comfortable as possible, and are always available to answer questions or concerns.

DR. DAVID PASSARETTI: I'll see you the day following your surgery. Healing is a gradual process and you cannot rush the body. About a week following surgery you'll likely feel well enough to get off your medication and return to work and light activity. I'm going to ask that you avoid more strenuous activity for four weeks. Your new, slimmer shape will continue to improve over the weeks and months as you wear the compression garment and begin exercise again. When are you thinking about having surgery?
