I had liposuction 17 days ago. Previous to my procedure i purchased a small, personal radio frequency device. I used it a little and did notice smoother skin. My skin continues to numb in areas and is hard. I am wondering if the radio frequency might help break down blood, fat, etc. that is probably in between the muscle and skin causing me discomfort. Is it safe to use RF on my abdomen and flanks? I will appreciate any feedback ! Warm regards and thank you!!!!!!
