Hard Elevated Pubic Area After Lipo

I would first suggest that you start with better compression to that area. Any under garment that you can find with some compression, will help relieve swelling that most patients experience to that area after lipo.

Second, go see your surgeon. It is important that your surgeon looks at this area to make sure you don't have a seroma ( fluid collection) or hematoma.

The pubic area is the most gravity dependent area of the torso and so it tends to be the area where blood and fluid drain. It is difficult to exert adequate pressure in this area and so this will commonly result in prolonged swelling and firmness.

It is possible that a hard area will spontaneously and slowly resolve but you should call your surgeon to be seen and evaluate if you have a collection of blood underneath which is referred to as a hematoma. Hematomas may compromise the aesthetic outcome.
