I had liposuction 12 weeks ago. Since the swelling has gone down on my lower abdomen, I have noticed a large bulge on my left abdomen. I went back to the surgeon and she said at my 6 mo check up, she would touch up the area if it appears to be a fat deposit. She also suggested it may be a hernia. I definitely can grab the area and feel fat. To my touch there is no hard lump. Thank you!!

Thanks for the question. It’s too early to comment over the result. First couple of days after the surgery you can back to work and couple of weeks later your permanent recovery will start. It’s possible to see some major changes in Liposuction results till the end of 12 months recovery....
It varies with the surgeon. Since there is some marketing and cost comparing involved, some practices will advertise a low price for an area which may be half an area at another practice. So if you want to compare, go to several surgeons and ask to treat the areas that bother you. Don't...
Thanks for the question. I suggest you should meet your Board Certified Surgeon to talk this situation. Because it's better to wait a couple of months, your operation area trying to get healed. Then after yes, you can do smoke and drink. I wish you all the best.
