Is the pain supposed to be this bad after lipo, 6 days post op? (photos)

hello emsfinest  Sorry about the pain, pain and discomfort after liposuction varies according to patients, oral medication is given to control pain in the first few days. You should visit or contact your PS about this concern. #pain #post-op

Pain can be variable and can be treated with oral neurontin. I recommend following up with your Doctor about pain management and after care. For liposuction after care, I recommend adding hyperbaric oxygen and lymphatic massage along with your compression to help decrease swelling. To improve your final results, I also recommend adding vanquish for further fat removal, exilis/venus legacy for skin tightening, cellutone/z wave to make the skin smooth, remove scar tissue, and improve the skin’s appearance. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Thank you for your question. All patients experience pain differently. We describe the pain to our patients in general terms but again it is hard to know how you will deal with the pain until you have the procedure. Should this continue to be of concern, I would contact your Plastic Surgeon and make an appointment to discuss you pain control options. Good Luck!
