I have gained 20 pounds and 2 inches all over my body. I am having lipo to my abdomen, back, flanks, and legs. I want to be bikini ready 3 months after, will I be a dress size smaller after 6 weeks? Understanding the last of the swelling takes 3-6 months
Answer: Liposuction Thank you for your question. It is hard to provided with a valid medical opinion without photos. I would suggest to be treated by board certificated plastic surgeon with experience in this procedure, to get the best desired results.

Answer: Shaping the abdomen with VASER HI DEF 4D Liposculpture, ThermiRF, fat grafting versus Laser Lipo J plasma,Renuvion, Inmode BodyT Laser liposuction is good for problem areas of fat, but lacks body shaping. For best results, I recommend a hi definition procedure like VASER liposuction revision, if you're a candidate. I use VASER HI DEF with ThermiRF and fat grafting to get the most fat removal, skin tightening, contour and definition. This combination will give you the most toned result. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a high definition physique expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Liposuction Expectations allabouteyes I appreciate your concern, but please understand liposuction should not be considered a weight-loss tool. It is an excellent device to improve contour, especially areas of the body unresponsive to diet and exercise. However, it is fairly common to drop at least one dress size after liposuction within the areas you are planning to treat. While much of the swelling will be gone after six weeks, it can take as long as six months for all swelling to go away. It is extremely important for you to adopt a healthy diet and exercise regimen both before and after your surgery to maximize your results. Good luck.

Answer: Will I be a dress size smaller 6 weeks after liposuction? You will likely only lose a few pounds from the liposuction procedures, not 20. Liposuction can make dramatic changes in body contour, but you cannot lose any dramatic amount of weight with it.The amount of fat liposuctioned varies with the patient. This will depend upon the preoperative fatty content of your abdomen, back, flanks, and legs, and the amount of fat the surgeon can remove. If the waist was smaller at one time, the waist can likely be reduced to those same measurements or smaller provided the muscular and fascial integrity has remained the same. Swelling and healing as well as scar maturation can persist for 6 months and sometimes up to 1 year following liposuction. Kenneth Hughes, MD, ABPS Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA
