Depressed about lipo. Is this normal? Is lipo dangerous to my health and body?

Results from liposuction are not evident for months, and you will be swollen for weeks.  With that said however, you should be in compression, doing lymphatic massage and hyperbaric oxygen and venus legacy skin tightening treatments at this time.  I suggest a formal consultation with an expert or your physician if you are concerned.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Seriously. If you are depressed, you need to talk to a mental health professional asap before you do anything foolish or dangerous. It's not uncommon to second-guess decisions that you make in life, but you need to talk it out with an expert when you're young and confused. Lipo does not have any negative effects on your health and the internet is rife with nonsense giving you a distorted view of reality.

it is normal to retain water after Smartlipo which may make you heavier. don't take your weight very seriously for about 3 weeks. If you are seriously depressed then you should see a therapist. Smartlipo will not mess up your body and you need to stop surfing the net. any idiot can post their ideas on the net and you don't have the knowledge to decide what is garbage and what is legitimate. You will probably bet a very nice result but you need to remember it can take 2 months to see any difference and you will continue to improve for 6  months. Your reaction is all of this is quite extreme but I am sure with a short course of therapy, you can get a much more balanced and calm approach to all of this. 

SmartLipo should not be considered part of a weight loss program. If you are 10 pounds heavier, then you are gaining weight just like the other 65% of Americans who are gaining excess weight. Instead of being depressed, do something about your weight. Most of my patients feel so much better about themselves when they lose their weight, and they look better too.Losing weight is not easy for most people who are
overweight. A lot depends on you and your
personality type, lifestyle,
metabolism, and attitude. If you want to learn how to lose weight and keep it
off for the rest of your life, you should do a program that encompasses all
these aspects. Three main aspects for losing weight are eating right,
exercising adequately, and getting support regularly. A restricted diet is
necessary, such as < 1000 cals/day. Limit carbs such as sweets, breads,
pastas; make sure you eat enough protein, at least 50 gm/day; eat lots of
vegetables and some low glycemic fruits; some nuts and oils, such as olive oil. Exercise regularly, every day if you can,
with good vigorous activities. See a diet counselor or physician at least every
other week; if you have a support person, use them. For further information on
my plan, The True Diet, go to my website. I also utilize methods to change your
metabolism, to make sure hormones are optimized, to lower inflammation, and
much more. It’s not just calories in should be less than calories out. Good
Luck.

In my experience, being depressed, especially 5 days after SmartLipo is not normal.  I would advise you to get counseling or seek a mental health professional to help you get this under control.  I operated on three nieces over thirty years ago and their problem fat is still gone.  By removing fat that is out of proportion with your normal body, you can actually be doing a good thing for your body.  I have had my personal RN employee who was an insulin dependent diabetic, become non-insulin dependent. I have seen many patients with their cholesterol lowered through lipo. Once you are 6-8 weeks down the road you should feel better about your procedure, but don't delay about getting immediate help for your depression and establishing a support system for getting you through this difficult period.Dr. Seare
