How long before I recover from liposuction surgery? Like all surgery, liposuction requires a post-operative period of rest, relaxation and recovery. After liposuction, patients can typically return to work within one to two weeks. However, they may need to lay off of strenuous activity for up to four weeks after the procedure. What can I expect during the recovery period? Helpful Liposuction Links:
