I had liposuction performed to my thighs, love handles and knees 1 month ago and I feel like the swelling is a lot better and bruising is almost all gone. I was wondering if my thighs will continue to get smaller or is this pretty much going to be my final result with some minor changes. I do notice a difference pre and post op, its just not as drastic as I thought (plus my surgeon said he took out 2000cc in each leg) so I thought it was a lot. My question is do you continue to get smaller?
