Lumps After Liposuction in Every Area. What Can I Do for It to Go Away? Will It Disappear.

    Liposuction results at 2 weeks are hard to evaluate.  Lumps and bumps should be evaluated to make sure that no fluid collection is present.  I have patients wear the compression garment for 4 to 6 weeks, and I do not allow strenuous exercise for at least 4 weeks.  However, every surgeon is different, so ask your surgeon.

Thank you for your question. There are procedures that can reduce lumps and irregularities such as Vaser shape and Vela shape.  Swelling can also still occur.  I would recommend wearing your compression device to reduce swelling for 4 more weeks and then reassess for a treatment plan. I hope this helps.

Post Tumescent Liposuction  Hard Lumps - Cause and Treatment
Massage can help manage firm lumps and bumps following liposuction to a varying degree. If the reason for this firm area is because of residual edema (called induration) then it will likely be gone by 6 months. Other causes may be from a localized seroma, liquefied fat pocket, or a fat deposit that did not survive.

Therapeutic or "lymphatic massage" may be helpful following  a  Liposuction Procedure to minimize swelling and resolve some of these firm areas.. Make sure your surgeon feels that you have healed sufficiently  and it is safe before doing this.  Endermologie is also very helpful after liposculpture/liposuction but again, not critical.  Although deep tissue massage following liposuction can aid in smoothing out  contour irregularities that invariably accompany this procedure it has limited effect on the final outcome and  is NOT mandatory. Some plastic surgeons recommend it to all  patients as they feel the edema resolves faster.  Ask your surgeon to show you or a significant other how to do this if cost is an issue. Typically they will have you massage toward areas of maximum lymphatic drainage ( for example groin or armpits) A low sodium diet may also be helpful early on.
