How long does swelling really last after lipo?

Swelling after liposuction lasts 3-6 months. The more tissue that was removed the longer the swelling lasts. Your tissues may feel numb while they still contain excess swelling. The good part about that is it's a sign that there is more result yet to come.

Thanks for the question. It’s too early to comment over the result. First couple of weeks after the surgery you can back to work and couple of weeks later your permanent recovery will start. 3-6 months after to the surgery swelling will be gone. It’s possible to see some major changes in Liposuction results till the end of 12 months recovery. I wish you all the best

How long does Swelling Really Last after Liposuction?Bruising and swelling are normal in the suctioned areas and usually increase slightly after the removal of any tape or foam. The bruising will decrease over 3-4 weeks, but may last as long as 6 weeks. The majority of the swelling will be gone within the first 3-4 weeks. However it may take 6-9 months to disappear completely. The compression garment helps reduce the swelling, and the longer it is worn, the more quickly the process will proceed.
