\"FitnessConsidering liposuction<\/a>? Pittsburgh cosmetic surgery center Premier Plastic Surgery utlizes a fairly straightforward procedure, but patients who are interested in it should take the time to plan for their recovery period to ensure that they are happy with their results and have sufficient time to recover after the procedure. You will probably be surprised by how short the recovery ends up being.<\/p>\n

First, you should not plan to stay at the hospital or surgery center after liposuction. Typically it is an outpatient procedure. You may be asked to wear compression garments after your treatment to protect you from a complication called “seromas.” While these cannot prevent them altogether, they can help.<\/p>\n

Your return to work will depend largely on the type of work you do. If your job is fairly low-key, such as a desk job, you may be able to return within a couple of days after your procedure. If it is a highly physical job, your doctor may want you to rest for a few more days to avoid straining the vulnerable areas. Since liposuction does not cut the tissue far below the skin, a lengthy rest period is not necessary. In fact, it is recommended that you walk around your house and outside within a day or two of surgery to prevent any blood clots in your legs or lungs.<\/p>\n

Bruising, swelling, and tenderness of the treated area are all common and usually dissipate within a few days. If you have liposuction<\/a> in Pittsburgh and notice any extreme pain or excessive swelling, you should contact your surgeon to ensure there is not a blood clot or other complication developing. Otherwise, recovery is fairly straightforward and you should be back at your normal activities in a few days with no real difference other than a trimmer body.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
