Asked By:isthisthekristykrab in Berkeley, CA

I am at 5 days post op from liposuction to the abdomen and a breast augmentation. Only about 100cc was taken out. I do not have any bruising, numbness, or pain in my stomach but it feels hard and bloated and I look larger than I did before the surgery. Is this normal? If it's just swelling, when can I expect to see results? Is it possible I look larger than before because of weight gain? Thank you!
