It has been 5 weeks since I had Smart Lipo/VASER Lipo done on my saddlebags, inner thighs, and buttocks. I still need to wear my compression garment for 1 more week. I am still seeing a lot of swelling, especially at the end of the day. I can't easily wear any of my jeans yet. I am a very active person and have my doctor's approval for running and working out. How long can I expect the swelling to continue, and is there anything I can do to make it better? Am I making it worse by exercising? I am ready to get out of the compression garment, but should I wear it longer than 6 weeks if I am still swelling?
Had Vaser lipo on my flanks and back 1 month ago. doctor told me I could stop wearing my compression garment. same day I stopped wearing it, I noticed pain, stiffness and tightness increasing. I also look more swollen. my waist was starting to look tiny. since I stopped wearing the garment, my waist looks wider.. is tightness, stiffness and pain still normal 1 month post op? Did some of the swelling return? Or was the garment making my waist appear smaller much like a waist trainer would?
I have this crease on my side that appeared out of no where, assuming from sleeping and the compression garment digging in. Appeared one morning and after trying to massage it out and getting lymphatic massages I am unable to work it out. Im so extremely pleased with my results even just 4 1/2 weeks out! This little crease on my side is just annoying me and Im hoping it just goes away with time. But if any suggestions that would be great other than what Im doing.
I had Vaserlipo a month ago. My incision sites are healing, but just last week I developed an itchy rash around my incision areas. I thought it was the bandaid so I removed it but it still persists 3 days later. I used nesporin but it wouldn't go away. What do I do? The images show the incision area near the hip (left and right). Thank you
I am 4.5 weeks post op vaser to my thighs. I have two distinct seroma pockets. One of them is like a water balloon where water clearly jiggles underneath the skin and can be aspirated easily with a syringe but the other seroma pocket is just contained, round and not like a water balloon. Its more like big swelling, inflammed sponge holding water but it is significant, protruding, round. How can this type of seroma be treated? Yes I get lymphatic massage but of no avail.
I had liposuction this year 02/02/2019 and I am still very sensitive and feel numb in my upper thighs and sides is this normal? 900cc was taken out I was told this is my second Vaser lipo in this area last year I had breast augmentation and lipo at the same time I had my hips and stomach done and he took 500cc and I didnt see a difference so I asked to have it done again but not on my stomach as my stomach doesnt look great from the first time.
Hi, I had VASER lipo done on the triceps area almost 4 weeks ago. Recovery seems okay but I noticed that my range of motion is more limited and I have several fairly deep striations on the back of my arms. For example, when I move my arms to do an action similar to the triceps stretch (hand/forearm behind head), the skin over the triceps is very tight so I can't complete the action, and 15cm long, 5mm deep striations criss-crossed on the skin come into relief. Should I be worried?
I started lymphatic massages one week after surgery ( 3 times per week) I am still wearing my compression garment but remove at night now. when I wake up my stomach looks a little better but by the end of the day it is lumpy and looks terrible. My doctor told me to use warm compression packs and continue massaging however I am I concerned that this will be permanent as it isnt getting better. Does this seem normal? Shouldnt it be getting a little better daily?
