Itching may develop during the healing phase after liposuction. However, if it is not localized to the treated ares then you need to be evaluated for other medical conditions. Have you discussed your symptoms with your primary care physician?A multitude of skin conditions are associated with itching, also autoimmune disorders, blood disorders, liver and gallbladder disease, infections, cancer, metabolic and neurological and endocrine disorders. The workup for itching maybe complicated, but I'm certain your primary care physician will be up to the task.Hope this finds you well.
There can be itching during the healing phase after your procedure, which can last 3-6 months. To improve healing, I recommend adding hyperbaric oxygen and lymphatic massage along with your compression to help decrease swelling. To improve your final results, I also recommend adding vanquish for further fat removal, exilis/venus legacy for skin tightening, cellutone/z wave to make the skin smooth, remove scar tissue, and improve the skin’s appearance.

This is absolutely normal. Especially during the healing period the fist month or so. As the collagen stars reforming and restructuring itself during the 2nd and 3rd months this sensation will gradually subside. Often recommended to use over the counter benadryl cream as its reported to be effective. Numbness in the treated areas can continue up to a year as it takes long for the nerves to heal i.e 1mm a day growth.
Following liposuction, the nerves can sometimes be irritated by the action of liposuction itself. While they are healing, the sensations that are transmitted to the brain can be interpreted as numbness, itchiness or several other sensations. This is normal.Nerve tissue is generally very slow to heal and the process of recovery takes longer than for other types of tissue, such as skin. We have seen clients report itching for a few weeks, although 3 months seems a bit long. I would consult with your surgeon to see if anything else might be going on.Hope that helps.

You can have body contouring at this time, but I suggest speaking to your physician before having the procedure. Best, Dr. Emer.
Any type of well performed tumescent liposuction would get you what you want. The addition of laser lipo would enhance skin tightening. For optimal results I would advise to do a complete abdomen, waist and lower back lipo sculpture to really get a beautiful contour.
Thanks for the question. The anatomy of the bra roll is different from other areas of the body. The fat is thicker and denser and only in one layer. This means flattening the area is difficult. The only thing that really works is melting and softening the fat with an ultrasound device called...
Liposuction is not a weight loss procedure. Liposuction will improve the contours for a patient by way of sculpting their localized areas of fat. It is my opinion that you should research different weight loss treatments and seek expert opinion from a bariatric surgeon. She or he could save...
When we do liposuction these days, we perform a variation called tumescent liposuction. This means that the area to be treated is first injected with a special fluid that contains lidocaine to numb pain and adrenalin to control bleeding. The lidocaine will prevent you from feeling any pain...
