Smart Lipo: Q&A

Will I Lose Weight off my Breast/higher Back Area After Recovery?

I had smartlipo on abs/waist 7 weeks ago. My breast/chest area has grown since surgery. Is this due to swelling or am I just getting fatter? My bottomside appears larger too, but in fact, have shrunk a bit when wearing pants. I am very confused. I walk daily but have only been able to start with light weights as far as substantial exercise goes only this week. Should I begin vigorous exercise now?

More than likely at one week since surgery, what you are experiencing is probably swelling. But, the breasts can grow with weight gain.

It would be nice to see pictures. It is good that you are beginning to exercise. Most important are your eating habits. You need to eat a good healthy diet or you will go back to gaining weight
