I am 4 months post op and lately I have been experiencing swelling out of this world. When I was 2 months post op my tummy was no way near this huge. I didn't have any lipo withy surgery. When i suck my belly in I can almost see the flatter stomach i wanted. Im not sure whether I need a revision or just lipo

For surgery, the area will need to be prepped and cleaned, then draped, then tumescent fluid will be injected. It is best to wait up to 20 minutes, sometimes even 30, the let the local anesthesia settle in well. Liposuction of only 100 cc's should not take long unless tiny bits are removed from...
If the zipper is digging in, then place a piece of foam under that area so it is smooth. Compression too tight can cause indentions. Please discuss your concerns with your surgeon's office.
Hi, MarkingYou are very early in your recovery process.You did not have excessive amount of subcutaneous fat prior to surgery.I expect that you will continue to see improvement next 2-3 months.Please be patient and follow your plastic surgeon's post-op instruction.Best regards.
