Is it normal to feel squishy after Vaser Lipo?

It takes weeks to heal from liposuction.  If you are unhappy with your results please speak to your physician and ensure he was a full body VASER HD liposuction physician with expensive experience in body shaping and not just traditional fat reduction.  At this point you should be using compression, RF treatments like venus legacy / exilis ultra / inmode forma or contoura and lymphatic massage to get you through healing.   We always add shock wave therapy such as cellutone, z wave, and eclipse evive to help prvent scar tissue formation and ensure an even and smooth result. It will take 6-12 months to see the final outcome.   If you are unhappy you can get a revision procedure by an expert in VASER HD lipo.  Best, Dr. Emer

Thank you for your question. I'm not sure if I understand this. You had VASER lipo of your thighs and feel "squishy" on the abdomen and ribs? I use the VASER daily in my body sculpting practice and I use drains for the abdomen and back. For the thighs, I leave the above knee stab wound open for drainage. You want the serous fluid out to promote sticking and healing of the treated areas, otherwise you can expect fibrosis and seroma pockets which lead to irregularities. Talk to your plastic surgeon about your concerns. Good luck with your healing.

Congratulations on your surgery!
At one day post op, I would expect you to feel "squishy". In fact, you will probably feel squishy for the next 7 to 10 days, and then most likely turn firm. This "firm" phase can last a couple/few months. 
In order to help the swelling along, I recommend finding a great massage therapist who specializes in lymphatic massage. You can begin these massages as early as one day post op! They really do help with swelling, and in turn help you to feel more comfortable. Of course, consult with your surgeon before embarking on any treatments.  
Best of luck with healing!

Following a Vader  liposuction there is a certain degree of swelling that varies from patient to patient. It usually peaks at 1 week, stays the same at week 2, starts decreasing by week 3. 
Moreover using the garments usually there is swelling of the areas not being compressed. It should go as your body heals. 

it sounds like you may have fluid buildup called a seroma.  This is very different than swelling. If you have a seroma then you should get checked out by a plastic surgeon as soon as possible and have this treated. Typically in my practice I would treat these by draining them daily ( if possible) until they do not recur.  If left untreated the fluid buildup can become encapsulated in which case it becomes a chronic Seroma. Once the capsule has formed they are no longer amenable to being successfully treated by simply draining. So there is a golden window of opportunity by treating these appropriately early.  Different doctors may have different approaches to these but that is been my approach the very few times I've had to treat seromas. Seroma formation  is a known risk specifically after VASER which is typically not often seen with non-VASER liposuction. This is one advantage of not using the VASER. Best, Mats Hagstrom MD 

Dear WI,Thank you for your question.Your body will go through all sorts of interesting healing phases after Liposuction.Swelling starts to go down about two weeks after surgery, and main healing will be improving over the next 6-8 weeks. Squishy, firm, lumpy and swelling sensations are all common.Wear good firm and smooth compression 24/7 during your healing for the best and quickest recovery.Best. Dr Brecht Seattle, Wa
