Question

Hi i am today 7 weeks post op, breast lift, liposuction and fattransfer to butt. I am afraid i see no diff from liposuction! I had the procedure done by a well known surgeon, who is also a friend of my family! After everything i went through, and all the money that was paid! I wore everyday (24h) my compresion garment till last week. Am i still swollen or what has happened? HELP!

Seven weeks is still early in your postoperative course. You probably are still swollen, so try to be patient. From your photos, I do see modest improvement already, and it should continue to improve as swelling decrease with time.

Its a little too early to see dramatic results after lipo because swelling will still be present after 7 week. Results will take some more time in your car as your seem fit even before the procedure. Meaning the amount of fat might not be too great to show a difference immediately

Tania Medina de Garcia, MD · Answer

Hello dear!!
Thanks for the question and provided information as well.
You are still early in 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, discomfort and irregularities are normal.
If you have any concerns, please follow up close with your plastic surgeon.
Good luck :)
