How do I get rid of the back rolls after liposuction? (Photo)

Thanks for the question. At this point of your post op the swelling is normal.To reduce it, I recommend you perform daily lymphatic drainage massage therapy over the abdomen and wear a postoperative girdle from thigh to the breasts.Kind regards,Dr. Emmanuel Mallol Cotes.-

Thank you for your question and photos. It looks like you are doing great. At 10 days, there is still a significant amount of swelling. It can take up to 3 months before you truly see your final results. The indentations or "rolls" in the skin are caused by areas of adherence from the skin down to deeper tissue. These cannot always be 100% resolved with liposuction. Be patient and I would anticipate that your results will continue to improve. Best of luck, Dr. Kludt

Hi and thanks for the question and photos. Somethings back rolls are due to adhesions between the skin and deeper muscles. The way to fix this in many cases is to remove skin from the area with an incision on the back. Best of Luck- Dr Hardy...

Back rolls are a difficult thing to deal with from a PS standpoint. The indentations or valleys between the excess fat or rolls is actually an area of adherence. Liposuction cannot break that adherence up 100%, so even after aggressive liposuction where all of the excess fat is removed, those indentations are present although not as prominent. Give it some time as 10 days is still early so you will definitely see more improvement, but be aware that they will not go away 100%.

Excellent Question!!!Love your question. You look great.  With my patients, I emphasize the need to keep pressure on your waistline and back consistantly as your PostOp edema and swelling decrease.  Your body will fill up any low pressure space with fluid if you do not have enough pressure to push your skin against the muscle against your back and waistline.  If you were my patient, I would recommend you, to place a waist-shaper over your garment and add Lipo foam between your skin and garment to add pressure over your back folds.Wish you well through your recovery!Dr McAdoo
