After the first week, many people may return to work with restrictions. Please discuss your job with the Doctor so you may obtain a better estimate of time away from work. You will not be identified in these except for our office records. Dr. Capuano has performed thousands of liposuction procedures and has found that the patients having the fewest problems following surgery are those who exercise regularly. Therefore, we recommend that you begin an exercise program at least one month before surgery and gradually increase your activity level if you are in good health.
Exercise can be aerobics, jogging, biking, etc.
Begin slowly and increase gradually. A good comparison can be made with a muscle. The answer is no. The answer is perhaps yes. If a person exercised and worked on the area, the remaining muscle cells could again contract to give function to the area.
