I've had nightly headaches as finding a comfortable position is difficult, I was told it would feel tight at first, but it feels like a bunch of chicken wire under my skin, painful and uncomfortable, my doctor said he uses permanent stitches, will this improve over time?
Answer: Still Experiencing Pain After Vaser Lipo This is a matter you should contact your doctor to discuss more about. Recovery from Vaser Liposuction is based on the level of soreness and bruising experienced by the patient. But, it can vary among patients. As with traditional liposuction, there are no large incisions or effect on the muscle and other underlying tissue. Therefore, #healing time may be less than anticipated by most. Therefore, Vaser patients may experience less #pain or discomfort, #swelling (#edema) and bruising post procedure due to the nature of the technique. A quicker #recovery for a patient may be two to three weeks without any strenuous activity. This includes the short period of suggested rest of 12-24 hours soon following the procedure. #Exercise and activity are contingent on how the patient feels. Mild activity is not likely to hinder recovery or healing or create problems with recovery. However, it is recommended to acquire your doctor's permission to do so. Once you begin exercising again, start gently and let your body tell you what it can tolerate. Don’t rush!!Swelling after #Vaser liposuction is not uncommon. Gentle #walking may increase circulation and help to alleviate swelling. But you must not strain or push yourself. Also, if you were provided a post-procedure #garment, be sure you are wearing it until prescribed otherwise by your doctor. The purpose of the post-procedure #garment is to provide some gentle #support and to reduce swelling. If it feels too tight or causes pain, take it off. Many patients wear the #elastic garment for several weeks after procedures, as directed by their doctor; some choose to wear it longer for several months for comfort.The final results of the procedure are typically most noticeable 2-4 months following the #Vaser. So, you must have patience. The swelling will gradually diminish while the contours of the treated area(s) can continue to improve up to one year post procedure; becoming more apparent in appearance. If you have concerns about your healing, or pain that you question to be unusual, it is important to call your plastic surgeon to discuss these further asked to be examined.

Answer: VASER Liposuction--Post swelling/bruising/pain It is not abnormal if you are experiencing headaches 1 week post liposuction but I do suggest calling your physician who performed the procedure to find his/her protocol if problem persists. Having pain, swelling and bruising 1 week post VASER is completely normal. In my practice patients have a post op protocol they follow including: wearing their garments, seeing a lymphatic massage therapist, hyperbaric oxygen treatments and non invasive RF treatments to speed up the healing and reducing the recovery time drastically. Please consult with an expert if needed. Best regards, Dr. Berger
