I had liposuction on my flanks and stomach 6 weeks ago. I have a hard swollen lump on top of my pubic bone area. This area was NOT treated. What is this from? Will it go away? Thanks

Answer: I have a hard swollen lump on top of my pubic bone area after lipo. This area wasn't treated. What is this? Will it go away? Hello dear!! Thanks for the question and provided information as well. Unfortunately, without pictures, it is very difficult to give you a proper answer. l recommend you to make an appointment with a board certified plastic surgeon to talk about your goals and anything you need to know. Good luck :)

Answer: Hard pubic lump we were not present during your procedure so none of us can give you an accurate assessment. I suggest following up with your provider to get an accurate assessment and answer to your question. In general plastic surgeons often blend areas treated into adjacent areas in order to give smooth contours without irregularities. So while your mons pubis May not have been formally treated it's possible the cannula went into this area appropriately while treating your lower abdomen. Gravity has a tendency to pull fluid down this can include blood that needs to dissolve overtime. It's common in this area becomes firm after lower abdominal liposuction. But six weeks this will typically resolve it completely. Best, Mats Hagstrom M.D.
