I had liposuction 2 months ago. My tummy is still bumpy. I asked the doctor, he said I didn’t wear the garment properly. In fact, I wear it 24 hours evey day, do you think my surgery was a fail? And my tummy has developed a bad rash.

Answer: Irregularities after liposuction Lumpiness and irregularities are noticeable in most patients after liposuction; it may last for months. Fat tissue that is "injured" with liposuction and surgery creates lumps and deep scars that will take several months to flatten, soften and disappear. Garment, post liposuction massage, manual massage of irregularities as well as ultrasound massage (ultrasound massage kit, $40-60 range) are ways to deal with these. However, there is a set of irregularities that is result of uneven liposuction; these will need treatment with new liposuction once healing of fat is completed (12-18 months after surgery) unless they are so visible that patient insists of having them corrected earlier.

Answer: Liposuction Recovery Snow I appreciate your concern, however it is still early in your recovery journey. However, it does appear that you have a allergic reaction to the garment. You should wear a T-shirt beneath the garment if possible to prevent skin contact and allow the rash to subside. Also, the garment should be snug but not overly tight and uncomfortable. Confirm my advice with your board-certified plastic surgeon. Good luck.
