Will this thickness go away after lipo 2 weeks ago and will it tighten up? (Photo)

Question

Just got liposuction 2 weeks and have hardness around my jawline. Two weeks ago I got liposuction, some from next and chin. I had a huge double chin, they took out 244ml. I still have kinda thick band around my jawline. It look much but wondering will this thickness go away and will it tighten up? My doc is great but never talk to me much..

Eight to 10 weeks after liposuction there is frequently swelling, tightness, and numbness.  This should improve over 3 to 6 months.Kenneth Hughes, MD, ABPS Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA

I encourage my patients to not look in the mirror during the first few weeks after liposuction. It just makes people upset and worried.  At six weeks you'll have some idea of what your final results will be like.  Final results take around three months.  Best, Mats Hagstrom MD
