Hard lumpy skin after Vaser lipo and thigh lift. (Photos)

Question

I am 5 1/2 weeks post opp after vaser lipo and thigh lift. My left leg looks good, the scar healed well and surface and shape of leg looks great. My right leg is a different story, the scar opened in 2 places and is only just starting to heal. The surface of the leg is very lumpy, some lumps feel lose and hollow whilst others are extremely hard and tight. Currently the leg looks a lot worse than before the surgery. Will this improve?

Lumps are fairly common in the first few weeks.
They should improve each week with massage and wearing the garment.  Besides the MLD do your own massage.
If the wound has broken down do see your Dr to make sure this is healing correctly and does not require intervention.

Renuvion skin tightening and aggressive lympathetic massages are required in order to tighten and even your skin and insure even contour. A skype or facetime video call with a VASER specialist is required for a full assessment.
