I had tickle lipo on my back, flanks, bra fat. It's been 10 weeks and I'm having burning sensations really bad!

Thank you for sharing your question and I am sorry to hear of your pain and discomfort after liposuction.  Liposuction can take up to 6-12 months to reach final results, but much of the swelling and soreness should resolve within a couple.  As it has been almost 5 months and your symptoms are worsening, best to see your surgeon for an in-person evaluation

Burning after liposuction can be normal and this is why I give medications to prevent this.  However, garments, lymphatic masssage and radiofrequency treatments help to reduce the pain and swelling. If you are concerned please be evaluated by your physician.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Most patients have moderate pain for a few days after liposuction with lingering tenderness for a few weeks.The amount of discomfort or length of recovery is highly dependent on the aggressiveness of the liposuction.Certain anatomic areas are also prone to having a longer recovery's.The front of the abdomen and that rib cage can for example be more uncomfortable.Most patients develop some numbness and different sensations as the skin nerves heal after the procedure.Different people describe these sensations differently.While you're basically healed from the procedure the maturing of scar tissue you and slight nerve injury that is part of the procedure text many months.I suggest following up with your plastic surgeon and or your primary care doctor to see if they can prescribe something that may help.At times medications like Neurontin or Lexapro can be helpful.High-dose ibuprofen can also be very helpful for the recovery after liposuction.While it's unusual for patients to describe significant pain 10 weeks after liposuction most patients
