Lumps after SculpSure. What could I do to make them go away?

It can take 3-6 months for final results. I suggest lymphatic massage, hyperbaric oxygen, and RF treatments like venus legacy to help reduce any 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

Lumps or nodules post Sculpsure can last for days to several months, depending on thesize of the nodule. This side effect will resolve on its own. My recommendation would be to continue massaging the area at least twice a day and increasing your water intake.

As you have seen, it is possible to develop lumps after a SculpSure treatment, but this is not very common.  I have not seen a patient where the lumps did not eventually go away completely over time, but it is possible that it could take several months.  I have not tried any treatment to help them go away faster, as they all resolved spontaneously.  I would continue the massage and try and give it a few more months to improve.  

Contrary to how SculpSure is advertised, painful lumps are common after treatment. Unfortunately the lumps can persist for over 1 year and do not correlate with a successful treatment outcome. I hope you have a good result. The majority of patients are less than completely satisfied.

Thanks for your question. Those lumps are your body's response to destroyed fat. Sometimes they take longer to resolve. I have seen them take up to a year to resolve. I recommend aggressive massage and fluid intake as you are doing. I also recommend that you follow up closely with your provider. H he or she may suggest additional modalities to assist in the massage. Regardless, they should be helping you in your recovery. I hope this helps and all the best.

Rarely, lumps after sculpsure can persist but should resolve after 1 year.  This is from the fat necrosis in the area of treatment and how your body has responded to the treatment.  Keep massaging and drinking lots of water and give it time.

Normally I recommend my patient to massage the area of treatment. For lumps to go away it will take from 2 to 6 weeks .

The small lumps that sometimes form after SculpSure treatment are more common in the abdomen.  You can help your body to absorb these by massaging the area and also drinking plenty of water.  Patience is key, as it can take up to 12 or more weeks for your lymphatic system to fully absorb the destroyed fat cells. 

Lumps can be present and I see them more frequently in the lower abdominal area.  This typically represents inflammation in the fat which will resolve.  I have seen them persist for up to 6 months. Massage at the area is helpful and I too use Cellutone (acoustic wave therapy) to help break up the inflammatory nodule.  While 3 months to resolve seems to be the average, it can take longer in a subset of patients but will dissipate. 

This is an uncommon event and does happen. We reccommend drink plenty of water and massage the area twice daily. They will resolve over time and do not cause any long term issues.
