Compression garments after smart lipo inner / outer thighs 6 weeks after I don't feel comfortable without it. Is this normal?

It is not uncommon to have soreness and swelling even 6 weeks.  The inner thigh which is a lymphatic-rich area is especially prone to prolonged swelling.  I tell my patients to wear their compression garments for as long as they can stand it and certainly as long as they feel it helps.  As long as you feel more comfortable with the compression, you should wear it because it certainly won't hurt.  You should of course follow up with your surgeon and discuss this with him/her.  

Thank you for your question.
It is not uncommon for the swelling to last up to six months. You may wear the compression garment as long as you are comfortable wearing it. Continue to follow your instructions and contact you surgeon with any concerns. Best wishes.

Yes, this can be typical.  It can take 3-6 months for swelling and/or tenderness to resolve with Smart Lipo. Compression along with lymphatic massage may give improvement. For best results with treatments like Smart Lipo, I recommend adding a combination of radiofrequency treatments like Vanquish, Venus Legacy, Exilis Ultra for skin tightening and with Z wave/Cellutone for skin smoothing in order to get the best results. A VASER HI DEF procedure is needed to get more contouring and definition. See an expert for a formal consultation. Best, Dr. Emer
