Answer: Lumps and bumps Thanks for the question, as the body is settling after surgery surface irregularities are normal as the scar tissue is settling. Things you can do to help prevent permanent asymmetries is to make sure your garment does not have a firm fold in it that is digging into your skin, that your garment is of appropriate size, use of post operative radio frequency treatments to speed up softening and smoothing of scar tissue

CONTACT NOW Answer: How can I avoid getting dents after liposuction? Dentist after liposuction are caused by irregular fat removal and liposuctioning to close to the undersurface of the skin. Continue to wear your compression garments and you should be fine. I do not think sitting will create the dents.

Answer: Dents after liposuction Dear Karla16,if your surgery was performed carefully and if you follow your surgeon's post-surgery protocol you probably won't have any major issue. You should wear your compression garment as instructed. Minor irregularities will reshape in the next few months. If you have any concerns, please consult with your plastic surgeon.Daniel Barrett, MD, MHA, MS

Answer: Liposuction After care includes RF treatments (Venus Legacy, Exilis Ultra) Cellutone/zwave, hyperbaric oxygen, lymphatic massage I recommend following up with your Doctor about their after care protocol following your procedures. For liposuction after care, I recommend adding hyperbaric oxygen and lymphatic massage along with your compression to help decrease swelling. To improve your final results, I also recommend adding vanquish for further fat removal, exilis/venus legacy for skin tightening, cellutone/z wave to make the skin smooth, remove scar tissue, and improve the skin’s appearance. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Avoiding post surgical dents Dents happen when the surgeon takes too much fat too close to the skin surface. So, if you are going to develop them, the deed is done at this point. The best thing that you can do now is to wear your compression garment and follow your surgeon's post op protocol to the letter. It's going to take time for your swelling to subside and for you to achieve your final results so be patient and don't panic if things look funny for awhile. It's a process.
