Lpg endermologie for post lipo patients

William J. Hedden, MD answers: Endermologie for Liposuction lumps?

I had a Liposuction on my tummy and back 2 weeks ago. I feel lumps even though I've done 9 lymphatic drainage massages. Someone told me to do Endermologie, but it hurts me and I don't know if it's good for the lumps. This vacuums intead of pressuring, which is what I need, isn't it? Should I continue having Endermologie or try something else?

Lpg is a great tool to use after liposuction to almost any area. Normally we try to let the patient massage on their own at home inbetween lpg treatments. Usually 2-3 weeks after the surgical procedure lpg is used to enhance the results from liposuction. Although,if someone has fat transfer to an area, lpg is not recommended for 4-6 months to ensure the graft survives. Lpg is not painful if done with the patients comfort in mind.The treatments consist of 3-5 minutes on each surgical site for maximum circulation benefit.
