I had lipo 16 days ago. And I still have this stomach crease. Is there any way to get rid of it? Will this go away after the swelling goes away or does this mean that the doctor didn't get all of the fat out of the lower stomach?

Answer: Liposuction results Dear sabrinaacarter,it is still to early to see the final results of your liposuction. At this stage there is stills some swelling which can last for months. I would suggest you to wait and follow your surgeon's instructions. If you have any major concerns, you should discuss them with your plastic surgeon.Daniel Barrett, MD, MHA, MS Certified, American Board of Plastic Surgery Member, Am. Society of Plastic Surgery

Answer: Line/crease on lower stomach after lipo. How do I get rid of it? It can be challenging to completely "get rid" of a crease that has been in the making for a long time because the tissue may be thinned out there. You may also see some improvement as the swelling goes down in the upper abdomen. One trick I use is placing thick Reston or liposuction foam between the skin and the garment so that the abdomen doesn't make a crease there when you move or sit down. You can order on amazon or talk to you surgeon about it.
