Thank you very much for sharing your concerns with us.At this point, 10 days post op, its too early to talk about final results. The swelling is normal at this stage of your post op.To reduce it, I recommend you perform daily lymphatic drainage massage therapy over the abdomen.Kind regards,Dr. Emmanuel Mallol Cotes.-

Thank you for your question and for sharing your photos and experience with us. You should find that every week you're swelling continues to go down. It may take several months for you to get your final result. I would recommend that you visit with your plastic surgeon who can continue to monitor your progress alongside with you..

Hello dear!!
Thanks for the question and provided information as well.
You are still early in the healing process, it can take up to six months to see your final results, so please be patient. At the stage you are in, inflammation, discomfort and irregularities are normal.
If you have any concerns, please follow up close with your plastic surgeon.
Good luck :)

Congratulations for your results, and of course Merry Christmas and a Happy 2016.Your Body and your Buttocks will resides at the same time, as the areas around your buttocks get less swelling you will see more projection. Sometimes it takes 3 to 4 month to complete the recovery period.I suggest physical therapy in all the areas of Liposuction to speed recovery, but not in the injected area of buttocks.

I tell my patients that most swelling will go down in 3-6 weeks but it can take 4-6 months for the residual swelling to subside.
