Lipo-Ex Side Effects- Hard Bump, Red and Tender. (photo)

November 19, 2011
Asked By:TX2IN in Valparaiso, IN

I have had 3 Lipo-Ex treatments of the abdomen. The first 2 were without pain.side effects. However, the third I had a different technician and felt the procedure was warmer, and rougher. After the 3rd treatment my abs were a little sore, 3 days after the treatment I have noticed a hard bump/lump that is round in the lower part of my stomach just above my c-section scar, now the area is very tender to the touch and the skin is red and warm....is there cause for alarm? HELP!!
