Asked By:elementalhard1 in Honolulu, HI

I got flank/abd lipo 4 days ago so I know it's soon to tell but this problem area below my naval and slightly to the left doesn't feel like bruising or swelling. It feels just like fat that could have been removed. Doc said to take 1-3 months for final result but I'm almost positive this isn't swelling or busing but simply fat that should have been taken out. Thanks for any advice! Btw. how long after lipo can I hit the stationary bike? I want to work out! :)
