Question

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

You may still have some swelling, which may last 3-6 months after your procedure. I recommend adding hyperbaric oxygen and lymphatic massage along with your compression to help decrease any swelling. To improve your final results, I also recommend adding Vanquish for further fat removal, truSculpt iD / Exilis / Venus Legacy for skin tightening, and Cellutone/ZWave to make the skin smooth, remove scar tissue, and improve the skin’s appearance. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer
