Can you have liposuction without bruising?

I recently had a little lipo to one of my thighs, as an adjuct to a bigger proceedure. Before surgery my PS drew a little target area on my thigh to harvest. After surgery, i had bruising in a adjacent area (just a bit higher up the thigh), but no tenderness or bruising in the "target area". I'm worried, because it now appears i have an indentation in the bruised spot, but seemingly no change in the target area (I think). Is this a bad sign? Do lipo areas sometimes NOT bruise? Two weeks postop.
