Itchy red raised rash after lipo?

SvetabarNov 19, 2013
I had a hip, thigh, and abdomen liposuction a week ago. Three days after the surgery, some large skin areas where the syrgery was done developed raised red itchy rash. I am taking antihistamine for that. I have also been wearing a compression garment. Could it cause the rash? Is the rash common after liposuction surgeries? Thank you.

The only explanation for a decease on breast size after liposuction of the abdomen would be further weight loss and subsequent loss in volume in the breast. We can't guess as to why your breast seems smaller when nothing was done.
