The level of swelling is dependent on the number of areas done, how aggressive the procedure was, and your own response. Regular clothing will be tight initially, but if you wear a compression garment faithfully, you will see more gains.

Swelling After Vaser Liposuction
You will always get swelling after any significant procedure; however, the amount of swelling is very individual. With Vaser liposuction, you will have tumescent fluid injected at the beginning of the procedure (a mixture of lidocaine with epinephrine to cause vasoconstriction so there's less bleeding).

Depending on the amount of liposuction and the area it was performed a shopping spree may be in order.

Liposuction
There will be a fair amount of swelling after liposuction surgery however your current clothing should still fit with no problem. You will also be wearing a compression garment which will help control the amount of swelling. You should expect to have swelling for months. I typically tell my patients not to really view their bodies until the hit the four month post op mark.
