I had liposuction yesterday on my inner tights, belly and waist. I dont feel any pain or discomfort or anything at all on my waist and upper belly. Is it possible the doctor didn't do on those areas? There is no cuts there either. I asked him right away he said he was able to reach those areas from only one cut , which is under my belly under pany lines. How can i find out he did it or not? Thank you

You are still healing. Swelling is worst in the lower abdomen because of gravity. The hardness is from swelling.You need to wait 3 months to see significant improvement and 6 months to see the final result.lMassage and other therapies may help....although I am not convinced.

Youshould absolutely wait longer. Whenever I perform the Lipotuck procedure, Itell patients that recovery time is about 6 weeks. The fat that you refer tocould simply just be swelling. Some patients are swollen for longer. Give it alittle time and don’t forget to wear your compression garment!
