Liposuction Mountain View – Recovery

After liposuction, Mountain View patients at An Enhanced-You

Cosmetic Surgery Center wear a compression garment for five to seven days. Most patients are active within two days and return to work and social activities in three to seven days. Patients having liposuction Mountain View procedures at the waist and above feel comfortable being active sooner than those having procedures on the buttocks, hips and thighs. The post-operative garment is changed to a permanent spandex-type garment at one week, and usually worn for a month. The compression helps to resolve swelling and mold the desired contour. Bruising and swelling decline during the first one to two weeks after liposuction. Mountain View surgeon, Dr. Lowen says that the results are apparent within the first two weeks, but to appreciate the final result requires resolution of the swelling, which gradually decreases over a period of three months.
