My Results from Tumescent Liposuction After 3 Weeks Do Not Look a Difference from Before?

February 12, 2013
Asked By:lipo1985

I just had tumescent liposuction 3 weeks ago and a week prior, I notice better results in my abdomen, but I was still really swollen so I figured it would still subside. But this week, I look so bloated and I feel very little swelling which scares me because this looks like my final results. I have had the traditional liposuction years ago and after 2 weeks, my stomach was flat and it stayed for a couple of years until I gained weight. Did my liposuction not work this time?
