Why am I still bulging out of clothes 5 weeks post lipo? (photo)

You are still early in the healing stage and swelling can be present for at least 6 months just be patient and continue to wear your compression garment to help with the swelling. Consult with your PS to discuss your concerns.

MissMorocco. So sorry for your dissatisfaction, but you may still have residual swelling. I recommend that you follow up with your plastic surgeon and discuss your concerns and expectations. Good luck.

You have swelling, which can last 3-6 months after your procedure. 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

It is difficult to know exactly what results are normal, as you did not mention what in areas you received your liposuction, but it is possible that you are still swollen. See your surgeon so that he/she can discuss with you normal outcomes. We suggest wearing your compression garment as much as possible for the first 6 weeks to assist in swelling reduction and improved skin quality. Again, it is best to follow up with your BS Plastic Surgeon to determine what is reasonable for you.Best of Luck! 

HiThanks for your question.It's hard to answer your question without having seen your preop photos, knowing where exactly was liposuctioned, and an in-person exam. However I anticipate you still would be swollen at 5 weeks post-op. You should be using adjuncts such as compression and massage to help with the swelling. Please discuss your concerns with your PS for more specific advice.I hope this helps....
