Back liposuction typically takes one to three months to recover, though the exact duration may vary depending on individual physical conditions. Back liposuction removes excess fat from the back, resulting in a slimmer appearance. After the procedure, wearing a compression garment is recommended to help shape the body. During recovery, it's important to wear loose clothing and maintain a light,清淡 diet.
