Should I be worried about feeling fluid moving in hips after Tumescent Lipo of the flanks post op 3 days?

Hello. Great question. Congratulations on your procedure. Please schedule a follow appointment with your surgeon for a personal examination. At 3 days it is still normal for swelling to be present.

This is most likely swelling, which can last 3-6 months after your procedure. If you're concerned, I recommend following up with your Doctor for a formal evaluation. 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

You are still quite swollen at this stage and may feel the fluid. continue to wear your compressive garments. If you have questions, please call your surgeon.
