It's been a week since the liposuction was performed on the upper flab arms. The burning, tingling, numbness and soreness are persistent. There is now a discoloration noticed, turning more yellow (like an iodine color) on the arm areas. Is this normal? Please help.

Answer: the marketing buzz.There is not a shred of good scientific evidence that any one of these methods is better than the others, or even better than standard manual liposuction or power assisted liposuction.Pick a great liposuction surgeon - not the machine.
There is no medication or topical treatment that will improve the rate of scarring and its eventual outcome. Best to leave it alone and anticipate improvement over many months.
