Does my stomach look normal for 8 weeks post op? (Photo)

December 29, 2014
Asked By:Dallasgrl in Houston, TX

I had traditional liposuction to abdomen and flanks almost 8 weeks ago. I know it's normal to look a little uneven at first since I still have swelling. Is this looking normal so far?? I went to my dr 2 weeks ago and gave me a shot in my stomach. He's also 5 hrs away. I've also done a few lymphatic drainage massages and wear a garnent all the time. I'm just worried I'll need a revision or some thing.
