I am 4 weeks post op. I wear my post op binder at night, during the day at work I wear some kind of post-partum compression garment or Spanx at the very least. My surgeon hasn’t been clear as to wether or not it is supposed to look like this 4 weeks out but has told me to start Endermologie. I know it’s still early but my question is if this is normal at this particular stage of post op or if this is potentially permanent. If this is normal, at what point does it start to smooth out?
Answer: Post-Liposuction After Care -- Compression, Lymphatic Massage, Hyperbaric Oxygen, Radiofrequency, Cellutone / ZWave It is too soon to tell what your final results will be. It will take 6 to 12 months to see the final outcome. However, with these types of results now you likely will need a revision procedure, this is not right.

Answer: 1 month post-op. Wavy abdomen after lipo. Is this normal at this stage or is it permanent? When does it smooth out? Thank you for your question and photos. The right compression garment (not binder!) is an integral part of the recovery process after liposuction. Now, bad liposuction will not be corrected by a compression garment. You do have excess fat around the umbilicus, which is the hardest area to contour. In these photos, it seems that you are wearing jeans, which are also tight on you and will create creasing and bunching of the skin. This needs to be avoided at this stage of the healing. Your final results will take up to 4-6 months to manifest, but I believe you will need further liposuction to give you the expected results. Good luck with your healing.

Answer: Liposuction Post Op Thank you for your questions and photos. Liposuction post up period comes in different stages. It is normal to have some hardness and in regularities for the first 6 months. I advise my patients to start lymphatic massages in order to help with swelling and hard tissue. Always keep in contact with your surgeon for he/she can best address your concerns. Best of luck
