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!

Answer: Can Liposuction change your hormones? I am 5'4 and was 102lbs before the tummy lipo. Feel very depressed Hello dear, thanks for your question and provided information as well.. This is the surgical procedure that revolutionized cosmetic surgery becoming one of the most performed cosmetic procedures. Subcutaneous tissue or fat is removed in order to contour the body in a way that is harmonious and pleasing to the senses. It can be performed in almost all regions of the body such as the neck, chin, abdomen, back, buttocks, thighs, arms and ankles. Usually done through a small incision in the skin through which a cannula connected to a vacuum is applied, it can be performed alone or in combination with other procedures. After liposuction your body is going to be really swollen for at least 2 to 4 months after your surgery. It is important for you to wear your compression garment for at least 6 months, the first 3 months 24/7 and then the last 3 months at least 12 hours per day for your body get use to not having the faja for so many time. When you remove it, your body can get swollen and also you can have pain. Remember to also compress your body to prevent a seroma which is an accumulation of liquid that has to be drained, it is hard to touch and also really painful. Bruises are completely normal for almost 3 months from surgery, that’s why is better for you to use a bruising cream and apply it all over your body 3 times a day. To prevent bad circulation and swollen legs, use compression socks. Brazilian butt lift can be performed with the same procedure and for a month it will be swollen and it will drop a little bit without losing it’s shape if you use your garment.. If you’re going to perform liposuction on your inner, outer, anterior, lateral, postetior thighs, be careful and consult with your surgeon what’s best for you, sometimes we have more extra skin than fat, that can cause severe sagginess on our legs, which can be only be reversed performing a thigh lift. Hugs!
