I had 360 lipo may 28, 2022 i am 7 months post op and the upper part of my stomach is bulging out in the shape of a ball. Is this normal?
Answer: Liposuction post op Thank you for your question. Looking at your photo that you have posted it looks like you maybe dealing with some intra abdominal fat. This is fat deep down under your abdominal wall muscles. I would suggest low carb diet and exercise to see if you can reduce the intra abdominal fat. Best of luck to you.

Answer: 360 lipo Dear lady l, I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what went wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment or ask for a second opinion. Only after a thorough examination, you can get proper recommendations and advice.

Answer: Swelling It is not common to remain noticeably swollen six months after liposuction. An in person evaluation is needed, but based on the provided photo the contour that concerns you can be from a few different things. One is visceral fat, which is the internal fat around the organs. This is not addressed by liposuction. Another potential option is abdominal wall laxity. I encourage you to visit with your surgeon for an evaluation and discussion of your concerns.

Answer: Liposuction Post op care Thank you so much for your question. After surgeries as Liposuction your body can create a seroma that is a result of an accumulation of clear fluid in a tissue, an organ, or a body cavity. They usually go away on their own, but may need to be drained. Please contact your surgeon and had a physical evaluation and run some testing for accurate recommendations. Best of luck!
