Im 5'2" and didnt have weight to loose becuase i had finished weight loss but had a pooch after having three kids i wanted removed. had lipo and results were great then at 6 weeks post op a larg bump came up on one side of my abdomen. it is hard but not painful. I have read this is a side effect and have messaged daily with little improvement. its not to noticable unless i turn sideways and then only alittle but is really bothering me. if i wanted a huge lump i would have left my stomach as was.

My doctor keeps saying its a bit of fat left but its not soft at all and i have been really strict with my diet so fat would not blow up in that area incase some was left. i dont know what to do. is endermology a possibility? ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED!

Over all im happy with the results. its just upsetting it may not go away and i will feel this forever.

Helpful review?

My Doctor:

it was a man/women team. they were very good to answer questions and thoughtful during the process

I still haven't had my lipo, but I've been really following the forums, and everyone says that massage really helps- particularly lymphatic drainage massage. I've seen it recommended weekly starting around 7 weeks post op. Also massaging it with an electric massager or hand roller, using emu oil. I hope this helps! I've read lots of people saying they did this and it went away within a few weeks!

I had similar patient. Massage did not work. Used Velashape and now after 6 treatment it is almost gone. If you decide to go that route, make sure the provider is experienced.
