Swelling in hips? 10 weeks post tummy tuck (Photos)

November 3, 2017
Asked By:nmc1980

I am 10 weeks post op lipo assisted full tummy tuck. I feel like my hips are getting bigger, clothes that fit 8 weeks ago are now tight across my hips. I had lipo in my hip area so i thought that my hips would be smaller?? I'm wondering if this would still be swelling or if this is what they are going to look like. I'm super impressed with the flatness of my tummy, and still love my result, but to be honest I was happier with my body shape two weeks post op than I am now.
