Was can be the possible reasons why I've seen no results from liposuction after 2 months? I'm 36 yrs old, 5'1, 126 lbs and am very fit. I had lipo to remove stubborn fat deposits on my tummy and inner thighs. I'm confused and out a lot of money.

Answer: Liposuction can take up to six months to see benefit.
At two months there may still be swelling to hide the improvement. You can ask the surgeon how much fat was removed from each of the areas and that can tell you that you probably will get some good improvement. There is continued shrinkage of the volume as more collagen is produced over six months and the skin and fat condenses more.

Answer: Liposuction results
It is entirely possible that it is still too soon to tell. Without photographs it is hard to tell, however it should be followed with your plastic surgeon so that the two of you can decide if more correction is needed. Allow time for the swelling to subside.
