Should Bruising from Lipo Still Be Around 4 1/2 Months Later?

Asked By:Texas05 in Houston, TX

About 4 months and 2 weeks after lipo of flanks, stomach, inner thigh, and bra line, I still have bruising on my hips and inner thighs. Arnica didn't really help and I am now using Hydroquinone as per my doctor's instructions. Is it normal to still be bruised like this? I am afraid it is permanent skin discoloration.
