“Ankle Swelling After Liposuction on Legs”

Not Worth It
Spent: $4,000 in Texas

I had lipo done to my outer thighs and inner thighs (just at the knee area) I would never have this done again. The risks of damage are just to great. I'm not crazy about the results either.

How long should swelling of ankles, feet, and back of knee persist after having lipo on legs?

This review is the subjective opinion of a RealSelf member and not of RealSelf, Inc.

My Doctor:

He was not careful enough in gathering health history to make an informed decision about the safety of this procedure on me. He also was too aggressive in the amount of fat removed. It looks unnatural.

Mine are still a little swollen now at three weeks post-op.
