I am 9 months post op tummy tuck and 19 days post op abdominal liposuction. Did I mess up my results ? I was flat before I did the liposuction I just wanted to get more of a waist. Is this swelling ? Loose skin ? Missed fat? If it is missed fat how long do I have to wait to fix it

Answer: Healing I really don’t believe that very many patients can “mess up their results” as I beleive most of the results occur in the operating room. What you are experiencing is normal swelling and postoperativehealing and based on your photos you will look fine but just give it time. If there is something that needs atttention then get re-evaluated at a year and see. That will give your body the time to get rid of the swelling and skin to heal.

Answer: Results You are still early in your recovery from the liposuction. Swelling is present and expected at this time. As the swelling resolves over the next few months you will get a better feel for your final results. I encourage you to follow the advice of your plastic surgeon and discuss your concerns so you can feel confident in your recovery.
