Answer: Itchy after Liposuction There are a few possibilities as to the cause: 1) your pain med may be making you itch. This can happen even with no rash, 2) something touching your skin or that was put on your skin is making you itch (antiseptic placed at the time of surgery, the garment, etc.,) Usually this will give you a rash. 3) itch nerves are starting to come out of shock and are over reacting. These can be treated with medications like Elavil or GABApentin. Contact your doctor and report your problem and lack of results with the current recommendations to get relief. Be insistent if you have to be.All the best.
