Bruised Penis After Abdominal Liposuction

Bruising of genitalia is the rule rather than the exception after lower abdominal liposuction. Don't be alarmed. It will be gone in a few weeks. There can be a lot of swelling too. See your surgeon for reassurance.

Liposuction can result in bruising and swelling that spreads out, right down to your genital area. On top of that, gravity will pull the fluids downward, where they collect in your scrotum and penis. It's quite common. Wear your compression garment, limit physical activity (walking around is recommended, but don't strain yourself) and cut back on the sodium.
