I had liposuction 3 weeks ago and these scabs are still on my body. I think it’s Lipo burn. Is this normal? Will it go away? (Ph

Thank you for your question and photos. It is a liposuction burn with imminent skin necrosis. This requires immediate attention to decrease the area of skin loss and prevent infection. Might still try hyperbaric oxygen treatment. Again, it is not the machine! As surgeons, we need to stop blaming the machines, but take responsibility for poor surgical technique. Poor technique and judgement causes these scans which will result in permanent scars. Good luck with your healing. Keep close to your surgeon and his/ her advice.

Yes - this looks concerning.  The skin pictured is certainly struggling, and may go on to necrosis.Did you have liposuction with an energy-based device? (laser, VASER, ultrasonic)Best to report back promptly to your surgeon to discuss proper care & dressings for this area.
