Diuretics are not standard treatment for bloating after liposuction

Don't take a water pill to reduce swelling without getting the permission of  your surgeon. Liposuction may cause fluid shifts in the body and if your wearing a compression garment and had a tummy tuck, you don't want to be dehydrated and wear a constrictive garment.

Tummy tuck liposuction

My suggestion is that to continue to wear compression garments.  The swelling may take a few more weeks to subside.  Another way to help is to begin massaging the lipo suctioned areas.  Be sure to ask your surgeon first before massaging.
