What can I do to get my smooth belly back? It's wrinkly after pregnancy

It is very common to have bruising and swelling for weeks to months after liposuction procedures. What is most important is that you follow your surgeons post operative instructions and continue compression. If you are concerned, lymphatic massage and Velashape or Venus Legacy treatments can be used to improve the swelling and help the skin tighten. My patients start treatments right away and it improves the long term results. Speak to your physician if you are concerned. Best, Dr. Emer.

Hello, and thank you for this question. It is much to surgery determine her results. I would recommend you wait a minimum of 3-4 months to allow the swelling and skin contracture to finalize. You'll have a much improved result in one month. I would recommend continuing to wear your garments of the first several weeks. In our practice we also recommend a lymphatic massage starting in about 2 weeks. Best of luck.

Good question.  it is much too early to determine your results.  I tell my patients that they won't see anything close to there final results until they are 16 weeks out from surgery.  By eight weeks you get a glimpse at something close to your final results first thing in the morning before the swelling sets in later in the day.  At two weeks you are in the that two to three week period where you are maximally swollen and even a little bit lumpy.  All this is normal.  Be patient and hold your judgement for another 14 weeks or so.  Yours is a very common question, though, and I often have to reassure my own patients much as I'm reassuring you!
