Answer: Liposuction: scars 2 months post-op hello hakunamatata7182 Patient’s scars will mature following surgery; they may be red or raised for the first few months, but after 6–12 months they will soften, lighten, and become less noticeable. Laser treatments available at the Pacific Center for Plastic Surgery can quicken the healing of scars and reduce them significantly. #scars #post-op

Answer: Liposuction scars at one month. At about one month after liposuction, it is normal for your scars to be red and visible. Other than using a camouflage makeup, nothing will improve the appearance for your anniversary in two weeks. Topical scar products can work well if used faithfully. Lasering the scars will not improve their appearance by two weeks. Good luck.
