Swelling of Hips After Liposuction is Not Equal, Is this Normal?

November 24, 2011
Asked By:butterfly2012 in NY

It is my 9th day after the surgery. I have hips liposuction. the bruises are every where but what I am seriously concern about is that the swelling of my hips are not the same. The swelling on the right hip is almost in the middle of the thigh and the left hips is just on the same place of my "original" hips. I am under stress and do not feel well psychologically. Is that shape of swelling normal?
