So I had vaser on my upper, lower abdomen and my bra rolls. I literallt cannot see any difference and if anything feel bigger than before. I didn’t leak a lot and I’m worried that I’m retaining the fluid? Will I see results? Is this normal or was there not enough fat taken? The surgeon said my fat was fibrous so could this effect my results? Feeling really disheartened!!

Answer: Vaser liposuction Hello, this is a very normal postoperative question. We find that in many instances the patient retained fluid in the first 1-2 weeks following the procedure. I would not be discouraged and I recommendthat you continue to follow up with her treating plastic surgeon. Patients may have swelling for approximately 1-3 months following this procedure and we have seen some skin tightening approximately 6 months following this procedure. Best of luck with your continued recovery.

Answer: TOO EARLY TO EVALUATE VASER LIPOSUCTION FINAL RESULTS. Hello 98fbee, I’m sorry for the adverse symptoms you are experimenting. Two days is too short of a time to evaluate the outcomes of your surgery. Maximum results would take at least four months to show. For VASER Liposuction optimal results, I typically recommend my patients wearing specialized compression garments 24 hours a day, during six months, to reduce swelling and help their skin contract smoothly to their new body’s contours. Additionally, a minimum of ten lymphatic drainage massage sessions are required to eliminate excess lymph fluid and prevent complications such as seromas (fluid collection) and contour irregularities (indentations). Consult with your plastic surgeon about your specific needs and concerns. With appreciation, Dr. De La Cruz.
