I had lip of tummy and hips and flanks 4 weeks ago. 4 months before I did my legs. Since my last lipo, my weight has gone up by almost 2lbs and I have been feeling very depressed. When I ask my surgeon, he doesn't have a good answer and he says it's because I drink too much water probably! is it possible that my hormones have changed thus depression and why is my weight higher than before doing the tummy 4 weeks ago? the surgeon says he took 5lbs from legs and 1100cc's from the tummy and hips.
Answer: Liposuction and Hormone Changes There are documented reports of hormones being affected by liposuction but 3-6 months later it all resolves. Liposuciton is not a weight reducing method and you swell significantly often increasing your weight for 6-12 months. Please see an expert. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Liposuction, depression, and minimal weight gain Perhaps you're focusing too much on even the slightest weight gain, which could contribute to your depression or anxiety. Remember that weight is not the end all and be all--using body fat percentage and BMI might be a better way to gauge your health.I hope that helps and good luck.

Answer: Weight gain Surgery is stress and stress can affect your hormones. However, you may still have some swelling from liposuction and surgery. Most are not at their true weight until 6 to 8 weeks. Most do gain weight from swelling and the fluids used with liposuction initially. Also, you may have some differences if you are weighing on different scales. For now, I would suggest not focusing on your weight, but more on your results. You will still improve as you heal over the next several months. Congratulations on your new look!
