I had my stomach and flanks treated. I have a hard knot where fluid had to be drained with a needle. When I push in on my sides, it's sore and tender. Is this normal 9 months post op?

Hello monalisa13 Liposuction patients can see results of their procedures as early as 10-14days after the procedure, but improvements continue 4-6 months afterwards as swellings and irregularities resolve. #normal #pouch.
Thanks for the question. Based on your photos, you might be a good candidate for smart lipo. I recommend you to contact a Board Certified Surgeon for consultation. I wish you all the best.
Thank you for your question. Swelling after the type of procedure you had done can fluctuate and last anywhere from 2-6 months. The more active you are after surgery, the more swelling you will have. However, seromas require surgical intervention.
