Answer: Compressive garments had never been shown to a fax the final outcome of liposuction
. Generally, the incisionsWhich are actually small poke holes are of little consequence. After healing is complete. If there is a better place for the incisions from your point of view tell the plastic surgeon and he probably can accommodate that.
Thank you for your picture. I think that your liposuction has produced unevenness that requires revision. I would wait at least 6 months to allow the areas to soften greatly. Then revision liposuction +/- fat grafting can be done to improve your abdominal contour.Earl...
Most operations where there is bilateral treatment has some asymmetry of healing. Usually this does not amount to anything but still should be reported to your surgeon.
