Ron Shelton, MD · Answer

You should ask your surgeon how many weeks after your lipo to wait b efore considering external massage with Endermologie, Velashape or deep lymphatic massage. Your insertion sites need to be inspected to make sure they have healed satisfactorily first.

There is no magic recipe for these lumps and bumps. Different surgeons use different regimens with some preferring Endermologie while others recommend external ultrasound. Any form of external energy will likely benefit these liumps once the risk of seroma has elapsed. Discuss this with your surgeon as some feel

David Hansen, MD · Answer

The lumps and bumps after lipo usually disappear in 6 weeks.  Begin massaging the areas after 1 week and start endermologie after 2 weeks.  These help speed up the recovery.
