I had 1.5 liters of fat taken from upper and lower and and back . I was left with a dent above my belly button, which I noticed the day after surgery . Do you think this will go away ? I have been massaging like crazy ! Stopped wearing Cg at 4 weeks

Answer: 8 weeks post op of Liposuction, will this dent above my belly button go away? (photos) NO! You will need fast grafting to even out the depressed area above your bb. Best to ask your surgeon his/her plans...

Answer: Contour irregularities after liposuction At only 2 months after surgery, you likely still have swelling and scar tissue which will continue to change over time. Most plastic surgeons recommend a compression garment for 3 to 6 weeks. You have to be careful that a CG doesn't cause indentations - as wrinkling of the garment can cause permanent indentations. Postoperative massage by a specialist in myofascial release can help smooth out irregularities. Treatment with VASER Shape is something I recommend for my patients with irregularities, the ultrasound can help smooth out the irregularities and can be safely done 6 to 8 weeks after surgery. Talk to your surgeon and see what is recommended for your optimal results. Ultimately at 6 months after surgery, if some irregularities persist, a small touch up liposuction can be done.
