Hey, I had my love handles and abdominal area done exactly 7 days ago. I looked in the mirror and one side look more slimmer and straighter then the other side like ones tight and the other side looking but fuller. Could this be because it's swollen? Looking at old photos one side has always been abit bigger One min it looks ok next swollen. Is this the actual result or will I see more as time goes on

Answer: How long to see liposuction results? Thanks for your question. One week post op is far too early to see or be concerned with the results of your liposuction procedure. You are undoubtedly swollen (and swelling can increase and decrease throughout the day). You may wear a compression garment to reduce the swelling if you wish (however the garment has no bearing on your final surgical result). Depending on the type of liposuction performed, it can be 6-12 months before you see your final result, so be patient.Best wishes in your recovery.

Answer: Liposuction - Post Op Swelling Thank you for your question. You are still very early in the post - operative recovery period. Swelling may be asymmetric and will gradually subside over the next three to six months. You may wear a compression garment over the next several months to help decrease swelling. Hope this helps and good luck with your recovery.
