Question

I see changes but still i feel im not that thin yet now i look okay yes much better than before but not that much, will i look more thiner ? I still feel that i have a lot of curvy shape than i should look will all be ok after a while?

10 L of liposuction is a lot of fat. I think weight reduction should definitely be part of a complete plan for you.

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

Liposuction is not a weight loss procedure but rather a body shaping one.  I suggest seeing an expert.  Results will be seen in weeks to months but for now massage can help speed the healing.  Best, Dr. Emer.

It's still too early to judge your final result. After liposuction, swelling develops and can last several months. It takes six months to judge your final result. You will likely lose more water weight as this swelling improves.

Thank you for your question.  It is likely that you are swollen right now after the liposuction procedure.  However, please keep in mind that liposuction is NOT intended to be a weight loss procedure.  If you are looking to lose weight, you should consider a medical weight loss program involving a strict diet and exercise plan.  If you still have "stubborn" fat, you could consider additional liposuction.All the best,Dr. ResultsMiami, FL
