I got liposuction done like two week ago on my upper and lower abs hips and back my pants fit the same.. The Lil patch I have from have 4 kids is still there... I still feel uncomfortable sad cuzI feel like they did everything in hurry cuz my appointment was 8:00am and they told me 9:45 so i was so late... i feel it's $6500 dollars in the trash if I'm the same weight.. and look the same but with a lot of bumps that still hurt..

Answer: No results seen after two weeks I don't know what technique was used for you, but it takes awhile for your tissues to fully recover following liposuction. First, you are not going to step on a scale and see a difference in weight after two weeks. Liposuction is not a weight loss procedure. A lot of fluid is pumped in and a lot of stuff is suctioned out during the procedure. Then you retain fluid because of the trauma to your tissues. If anything, you may actually weigh more following liposuction because of the excess fluid in your body. It takes time for this swelling to resolve. Second, the elastic fibers in your skin don't spring right back after liposuction. It takes time for them to tighten down. I tell my patients that they may not see their final results from traditional liposuction for three to six months following the procedure, nine months if Slimlipo or Smartlipo is used. It just takes that long for your tissues to recover. So, in the grand scheme of things, two weeks is still early in the process. My advice is to be patient and follow your doctor's instructions at present. Don't judge your results until several months have passed.

Answer: Lipo results Please be patience, it is still a very short time after surgery. Some times when the skin on the abdomen is very loose the chances of bumps and lumps are very high.Just let the time to do its job. You can not make a final evaluation until the 6-8th week. Dr. Cardenas
