While I do not perforrm laser liposuction ( I prefer power assisted liposuction), I see no problem with the use of ice.  At this time (4 days) it will not likely resolve the bruising and swelling faster.  It can be used for comfort primarily.  You do need to check with your surgeon to confirm this.
