I had chin lipo/lift one week ago. I am worried as I feel it looks worse than before! It looks saggy and bigger but I’m hoping this is still due to swelling. I was told I didn’t need to wear a compression bandage at all...has that ruined it?! I’m scared it’s worse! Will it get better?!

Answer: Swelling after liposuction Dear hanban100I understand your concern and it is quite normal to be concerned about the outcome following a liposuction surgery. However, you are still in the very early stages of the healing process. Your will need to be patient at this moment and follow what your surgeon has instructed you to do post operatively. At the early stage of the healing process, the tissues are still swollen. Once the swelling subsides you will be able to see the final result of your surgery.Daniel Barrett, MD, MHA, MS Certified, American Board of Plastic Surgery Member, Am. Society of Plastic Surgery

Answer: Chin Liposuction Hello dearThanks for the question and provided information as well. Swelling is normal at this phase of the healing process, be patient, it will go down in few weeks, i recommend my patients use the bandage to give more compression to the area. Good luck :)
