I’ve red you can only get lipo a few timeIf that’s what I need then I’ll do it but please tell me how to save it if I can.

I encourage you to return to your surgeon for an evaluation.  It takes some patients up to a year to fully heal from liposuction.  Massaging may help.  It is possible the area was over suctioned resulting in these irregularities.

Dear Jamie Sue,
I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what went wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment or ask for a second opinion. Only after a thorough examination, you can get proper recommendations and advice.

Swelling post-lipo can persist for months, so it's important to be on the right after care protocols. In addition to compression, hyperbaric oxygen therapy and radiofrequency treatments, lymphatic massage is highly effective in the prevention of fluid buildup, scar tissue, inflammation, and infections. Lymphatic massage also decreases the chance of irregularities, lumps or bumps; accelerates healing and minimizes downtime; and, following a liposculpture procedure, can help further contour the abdominals.

I recommend that my liposculpture patients receive lymphatic massage treatments every day for a week following their procedure; twice per week for the following month; and then once per week until healing is complete.

I recommend following up with your physician (or with a hi-definition physique expert) about best after care practices. Best, Dr. Emer.

thanks for contacting us! the heal process takes almost a year to be done, then we can see the real results, but , good massages, compression and the ultrasound can help to get better results
