Stitch in belly button after Lipo: is it normal for the stitch to come apart so soon?

Yes, this can be typical. I recommend following up with your surgeon. Keep in mind, you will 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’s a pleasure to answer this question. Leaking fluid 2 weeks after liposuction is not normal. Most often, the sutures are removed before 2 weeks. I suggest you get seen by your PS to address your concerns in person. Good luck. Dr. Aldo
