How long after Liposuction and a Tummy Tuck will I see results?

Your results will come over time. In general I have a full discussion with my patients to let them understand that the surgery is very comprehensive but the healing can take months. I instruct them to use a binder and massage aggressively.

You are only three weeks out from surgery.  This is not near enough time for your end result. You must be patient.  Your results will come gradually.  Right now you are swollen and retaining fluid from both surgeries. It could be months before you see the end result her.  All the best to you.

Youshould absolutely wait longer. Whenever I perform the Lipotuck procedure, Itell patients that recovery time is about 6 weeks. The fat that you refer tocould simply just be swelling. Some patients are swollen for longer. Give it alittle time and don’t forget to wear your compression garment!

should produce an idea of what has been achieved early on BUT swelling does throw come curve balls as to what you see.  Its very common for you to not fit into your old clothes for a while.  If your bowels are not working well, its contributing to your look.  If considerable fat was removed, you will have a visible result as your healing progresses.  So at this point, give it time and continue your follow-ups with your surgeon and let him/her know of your concerns as you progress through this journey.

Thanks for your question. It is entirely too soon to see final results after lipo/tummy tuck. It takes 3-6 months to see final results due to swelling, so please be patient with yourself. I would advise you to discuss your concerns with your plastic surgeon at your next post op visit, I'm sure he/she will tell you to be patient. Best of luck.
