Your tissues will be 'leaky' for several months after liposuction.. Fluid you massage our today will reappear tomorrow. Aggressive massage may actually aggravate the wound and perpetuate the wound state (like picking off a scab), and may increase scarring (for better or worse).

Dear Ak100Thank you for your question! Massage is helpful to settle down the post operative swelling and soften irregularities. It is not complicated- try for someone that does lymphatic massage.With Warm RegardsTrevor M Born MD

Hello dear, thanks for your question and provided information as well.. This is the surgical procedure that revolutionized cosmetic surgery becoming one of the most performed cosmetic procedures. Subcutaneous tissue or fat is removed in order to contour the body in a way that is harmonious and pleasing to the senses. It can be performed in almost all regions of the body such as the neck, chin, abdomen, back, buttocks, thighs, arms and ankles.

To prevent bad circulation and swollen legs, use compression socks. Brazilian butt lift can be performed with the same procedure and for a month it will be swollen and it will drop a little bit without losing it’s shape if you use your garment.. If you’re going to perform liposuction on your inner, outer, anterior, lateral, postetior thighs, be careful and consult with your surgeon what’s best for you, sometimes we have more extra skin than fat, that can cause severe sagginess on our legs, which can be only be reversed performing a thigh lift…

Seromas are the most common minor complication after a LIPOSUCTION. You should visit your primary physician for a evaluation. A referral to a PS should be done if you need to drain the seroma.
