Hey , I had had liposuction to my stomach / Brazilian butt lift surgery done 7 weeks ago . Day 2 : I looked Like i had abs and a nice stomach contour. Week 3 : my abs disappeared and I could see more swelling week 7 :I look like I haven’t had lipo done .My results are getting worse by day instead of improving. 1. Can the welling go worst after taking off garment completely “week 6” ?? 2. How fast can the fat grow after lipo ? 3 . Will I go back to looking like day 2 after the surgery?
