Recovery from male liposuction is essentially the same as recovery after female liposuction. After liposuction, men are advised to begin walking around as soon as possible, but to avoid strenuous activities for approximately 1 month. You will have discomfort, swelling and bruising in the first few weeks after the surgery, but this should subside. You can take pain relievers for the pain and you can minimize swelling and bruising with the use of cold compresses. Follow your doctor’s instructions.
After your liposuction, you will need to wear a compression garment over the treatment area. Yes, this is similar to a girdle, but it is important to wear it because it helps control swelling and reduces the risk of irregular contours. It also helps the body heal into its new shape.
