Advice on hard spots
By Rubee on 07 Nov 2011
I have a scheduled appointment for the procedure. It's so helpful to read these posts. Just concerned about the "hard spots" many of you have mentioned. Is there anyone who did not experience the hardness? Is there a possibility that some patients are more vulnerable to this due to the amount of fat removed?
I don't know if everyone gets them but they are common. From what I've read, they are pockets of fluid or swelling that accumulate. I think it's related to how violent liposuction has to be to remove the fat, so I'm guessing that people who have more removed (and in swelling-prone areas) are more likely to get them.
You can also post on the Doctor Q&A Forum for some professional opinions. Hope this helps. :)
