Vaser Lipo 4 months ago (chest, belly, love handles) Average results - What went wrong? Did the fat come back? (photos)

hello mrpeterson  Final results can be seen 2-4 months later as the swelling continues to diminish and contours become more defined.   These contours can even improve throughout the year after surgery.
We will generally have our patients use a variety of compressive garments while they heal.  More specific body sculpting or hi-definition treatments may require more specific compression to obtain the best result. #fat #post-op

Hello mrpeterson,
I appreciate your questions! VASER liposuction results will take up to six months to show. Plastic surgeons have different post-operative protocols to achieve the best surgery results, customized for every patient. I typically recommend my patients to wear specialized compression garments during 6 months to help the skin contract smoothly to their new body’s contours. Moreover, manual lymphatic drainage massages are required to eliminate excess lymph fluid and totally alleviate swelling and discomfort. Implementing healthy eating habits and regular exercise (taking advantage of your new increased metabolism) is essential to keep stimulating weight loss and avoiding retrieving the rendered fat. If after 6 months you are still dissatisfied with the results, consult with your plastic surgeon about your specific concerns. Good luck and may God bless you! Dr. De La Cruz.  

Full healing can take 6-12 months. Removed fat does not come back.Attempting repeated liposuction too early will flare swelling and delay healing further.Close follow up with your plastic surgeon is recommended during this time for instructions.
