Upper and lower abdomen liposuction 13 days ago. Result looks ok when laying down and in garment, but when taken off at sat up looks like no lipo was done and looks like I have a spare tire. Is this from not enough fat taken, swelling or excess skin and tummy tuck should have been done instead? I asked this specifically before surgery and was told I had good skin laxity and shouldn’t worry. I have worn my garment religiously exactly as instructed. What can be done to remedy this?

Answer: Did abdominal liposuction not work on me? Thanks for your question. You're still in the early stage of healing. There is a process of swelling and bruising that peaks at 3 days after surgery and then undergoes the first stage of major resolution in the first 2 weeks after surgery. The lateer phase of healing takes place over the 2-3 months after surgery where everything really settles and softens. It is after this time that we are getting close to the final result, though this varies patient to patient.

Answer: Did abdominal liposuction not work on me? (Photo) Hello dear!! Thanks for the question and provided information as well. You are still early on the healing process, it can take up to six months to see your final results, so please be patient. At the stage you are in, inflammation is normal. If you have any concerns, please follow up close with your plastic surgeon. Good luck :)
