Can you advise on fat necrosis/lumps on my hip 8 months post-op? (Photo)

Question

Hi! I had a bbl 8 months ago & my right hip is still hard, has lumps & is warm. When I add ice it gets really red and the ice melts fast. It doesn’t hurt it’s just uncomfortable. I was told by the hospital it’s not an infection they did a ct! Also it’s discolored. My surgeon facility never answers :/

Dear Compassionate452050,
I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what went wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment or ask for a second opinion. Only after a thorough examination, you can get proper recommendations and advice.

I suggest you follow up with your provider.

That is who is responsible for your follow up care.

You can also opt to have and in person second opinion consultation though you may need to pay for that.

We really can’t make an assessment based on a post on real self.

Best,

Mats Hagstrom MD
