Typical amount of fat removed in lipo?

roccosmom2014
I has lipo on my upper and lower abs, sides, flanks and upper /lower bra rolls. Is that atypical amount? After three weeks I'm still numb on most of the back and hips. Does that mean significant swelling is present. I haven't lost a dress size yet after three weeks. Nervous that I went through this for little result. My came recommended and is affililiate with Elite a Body in Beverly Hills.
