Lipo Swelling

Swelling is normal after liposuction and can last up to 6-8 weeks. Unfortunately, there is no magic solution to improve this. Often, as you progress you become more active and this can result in more swelling. Be careful of your diet, and wearing a compressive garment during exercise can be helpful.
