Answer: Is it normal for the stitch to come apart so soon? Thank you for your picture and question. Having the suture come apart can happen but you should follow up with your Dr. to see what's going on. Its normal to leak but it should only last 24-48 hours.Best of luck to you.

Answer: Stitch after Liposuction & After care includes RF treatments (Venus Legacy, Exilis Ultra) Cellutone/zwave, hyperbaric oxygen 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

Answer: Stitch in belly button... 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
