There is a wrinkling if the skin in my inner thigh an my thighs feel bigger & saggier. Is there by possibility this will improve or most likely not ?
Answer: Lipo recovery Thanks for the question and excellent photography, Im glad you brought this up as we see it from time to time. For some reason the cylinders in the body aka the arms and thighs tend do develop ridges and waves during healing. It is normal and tend to settle in time, they settle faster with massage/compression/ and external radio frequency treatments. I understand that healing is more than a physical process but also psychological so hang in there!

Answer: Liposuction Results & After care includes RF treatments (Venus Legacy, Exilis Ultra) Cellutone/zwave, hyperbaric oxygen It is too soon to tell what your final results will be. You have swelling, which can last 3-6 months after your procedure. I recommend adding hyperbaric oxygen and lymphatic massage along with your compression to help decrease swelling. To improve your final results, I also recommend adding vanquish for further fat removal, exilis/venus legacy for skin tightening, cellutone/z wave to make the skin smooth, remove scar tissue, and improve the skin’s appearance. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Liposuction Recovery bcbmom. I appreciate your concern, but it is still quite early in your recovery journey and your body needs time to heal allowing swelling to resolve and skin to smooth out and contract. It can take as long as 4 to 6 months before realizing your final result. Try to stay patient and follow up with your plastic surgeon. Good luck.

Answer: Today, I’m post op week 3 for inner thigh lipo. Will this wrinkling and sagging skin improve? Thank you for your question. Healing after plastic surgery is a process and the earlier parts are the most challenging. Emotions are a big part of the process as well. There is a process of swelling and bruising that peaks at 3 days after surgery and then undergoes the first stage of major resolution in the first 2-3 weeks after surgery. The later phase of healing takes place over the 2-3 months after surgery where everything really settles and softens. It is after this time that we are getting close to the final result, though this varies patient to patient. It's best to follow your surgeons specific advice post-operatively.

Answer: Today, I’m post op week 3 for inner thigh lipo. Will this wrinkling and sagging skin improve? Hello dear! Thanks for the question and provided information as well. You are still early on the healing process, it can take up to six months to see your final results, so please be patient. At the stage you are in, inflammation and loose skin is very normal. I suggest my patients to try the lymphatic massages and to use a full body compression garment, 24/7 for the first 3 months, and after that, for 12 hours a day for 3 more months, to get the best results. If you have any concerns, please follow up close with your plastic surgeon. Good luck :)
