I'm 7 weeks post lipo. Am I still swollen or am I beginning to gain belly fat? (Photo)

Liposuction swelling can persist for a number of months. There is nothing in the photograph it looks alarming. I think you'll do fine and you will see improvement in the ensuing months.

Thank you for your question and pictures.  You are very close to your surgery date and most likely due to swelling.  Some patients have a good reduction in swelling by 3 months and others go as long as 6 to 12 months.  Make sure to follow your doctor's recommedations, get some light exercise, and relax.  All will be okay.  Cheers and best wishes,Steven Camp MD#HappyCamperMD 

At seven weeks you are likely still swollen. Best to give it more time to settle down.  All the best and good luck.
