I had Smart Lipo done 2 weeks ago and my lower back is on fire as I stand up. Please tell me why (Photo)

Hi there,Some burning, tingling sensation is normal at your stage post lipo procedure. The love handles and sacrum tend to be the area that will have this sensation the most.   Lymphatic massages, to remove extra fluid should help.  In some instances I prescribe meds to help with this.  I would speak with your provider about best options for you!

Pain can be variable for patients who have had liposuction. If necessary, this pain can be treated with anti-inflammatory medications and neurontin. If it persists, I recommend following up with your Doctor. It can take 3-6 months for final results with Smart lipo. I suggest lymphatic massage, hyperbaric oxygen, and RF treatments like venus legacy to help reduce any swelling. To improve your final results, I also recommend adding vanquish for further fat removal, exilis/venus legacy for skin tightening, cellutone/z wave to make the skin smooth, remove scar tissue, and improve the skin’s appearance. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Lipo along the back and waistline causes discomfort near the surface of the muscles. It will subside, but improves with massage and anti-inflammatory meds like ibuprofen or naproxen. Some patients find relief with sports creams designed for muscle pain (Ben-Gay, etc). If the pain is new or severe, contact your surgeon for an exam and specific advice.
