So my stomach has hard lumps on it after my lipo. My skin also feels so tight that it can rip. I go to this massage place abs they said I have fibrosis they give me these torture massages, then drain the fibroidsame that can be drained...then they inject me with carbon dioxide which feels like I've been set on fire. They told me it's to fix the fibrosis and to turn my skin back soft. Should I let them do this or will my skin eventually soften?

Generally, these kind of supplements are not recommended by doctors. If you must, 1 month after your surgery should be ample time to recover and it should not affect the results of surgery in any way.
Extreme pain isnt normal and I suggest speaking to your physician. You look very bruised so this may be a consequence of your aggressive procedure but you want to ensure there is no infection, seroma, or hematoma. Best, Dr. Emer.
I would recommend against doing liposuction coincident with arthroscopy. You will likely, however, be suitable for liposuction once you have returned to normal ambulation and your orthopedic surgeon approves your next surgery. Good luck!
