I have attached pics w/arrows pointing to the indents. I have also attached a before pic . I had about 500cc from each side removed under GA & incisions were left open to drain fluids. (Incisions are indented 2) I know some lumps & indents are a normal part of the healing process. My lumpy places are soft. What is your honest opinion of the chances of these visible places ever smoothing out? I’m rolling thighs daily with a wooden rolling pin per Drs orders.

Answer: Liposuction Recovery smgjmg123. I appreciate your concern, but it is still quite early in your postoperative recovery to be overly concerned. It takes at least 4 to 6 months for all swelling to resolve and Skin to contract. Continue close follow up with your plastic surgeon. Good luck.

Answer: Will the lipo lumps and dents go away? I am 3.5 weeks post-op from saddlebag lipo. Hello dear!! Thanks for the question and provided information as well. You are still early on the healing process, it can take up to 6 months to see your final results, so please be patient. I suggest my patients to use a full body compression garment, 24/7 for the first 3 months, and after that, for 12 hours a day for 3 more months and to try the lymphatic massages, to get the best results. If you have any concerns, please follow up close with your plastic surgeon. Good luck :)
