I had routine vaser on my lower abs on the 27th June in London. All went well and saw immediate good results. After my 3rd massage as part of aftercare the therapist did deep tissue and MLD. Completely routine apparently. 2 hours later my lower abs swelled like never before and I was rushed to A&E. Scans revealed a huge hematoma due to a broken blood vessel and blood filling the space where the fat once was. I am still in hospital and have been told my the surgeons here and mg original surgeon that the hematoma will dissolve but it will take a very long time. I am devastated, I am bigger than what I was before. I can't see how the swelling and hematoma will go down. I am not seeing thecosmetic surgeon until next week, I have been disappointed with his lack of care considering what has happened. He says I have been very unlucky and this is a rare incident. Is it? What has caused this?

Wow, sorry to hear that. I wonder if the massage had anything to do with it. Thanks for the post, keep us up to date please.

Seeing original surgeon tomorrow for the first time since hematoma although not expecting him to tell me or do much. I am seeing a private plastic surgeon who specialises in reconstruction etc. Rather than cosmetic on Monday. I am also being referred to another specialist later in the week for yet another opinion as best course of action. Swelling has reduced the bruisingis much darker ans travelling down (a good sign) but there huge lump is still there. But something is telling me to wait and be patient...
