Is there still a significant change in results after 4 weeks post lipo, or are these close to my results? (photos)

Asked By:Phoenix86 in Ontario, CA

I had tumescent lipo done on aug/13 on my upper/lower abdomen and flanks. My original weight was 135 and I'm 5"3. Ive seen some changes over the last few weeks but not nearly close to what I'm hoping for. When i went in to see my dr 2 weeks post op, he said he took everything he could from my flanks, there was nothing left. In total he said he took 1300cc's out, 800cc of that was from the front, the rest was from the flanks. How much more can I expect to see when it comes to results?
