I am at 10 days post laser lipo and have hard lumps in my stomach area. I was told that magnesium would help minimize them - is this so or what else can I use to help speed up recovery?
Answer: 10 days post laser lipo That is a good question. Hard areas after laser liposuction are common and will dissipate in about 6 weeks to even as long as 6 months. Lymphatic massage and external ultrasound will help smooth out the areas faster. Good Luck and hope for a speedy recovery.

Answer: Post Liposuction Irregularities, Swelling -- Try Massage, Velashape or Venus Legacy With Your Compression It is very common to have bruising and swelling for weeks to months after liposuction procedures. What is most important is that you follow your surgeons post operative instructions and continue compression. If you are concerned, lymphatic massage and Velashape or Venus Legacy treatments can be used to improve the swelling and help the skin tighten. My patients start treatments right away and it improves the long term results. Speak to your physician if you are concerned. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Lumps after liposuction You are now 16 days after liposuction and there should be slightly less lumpiness than one week age. This tightening, smoothing and firming will continue for the next 6-8 weeks. The last phase of healing occurs when the firm feel to the fat layer becomes a soft feel like you had before surgery. Also, do not be alarmed if your weight is still up. The excess water in the fat layer will stay until the healing is complete.

Answer: Skip the magnesium You simply need to let your body heal. It takes time, and there's no way to speed up the process. From now on, things should slowly start getting better week by week. It takes three months to see your final results.Best of luck,Mats Hagstrom, M.D.

Answer: I am at 10 days post laser lipo. The lumpiness and hardness after smartlipo or other types of liposuction typically persists at least 8 weeks after the surgery then slowly goes away. In my experience, daily massage of the hard areas makes the biggest difference in getting rid of it sooner rather than later. Hope this helps. Dean Vistnes.
