Liposuction results at 5 weeks. How much of my results should be visible by now?

Asked By:ltbtampa in Tampa, KS

I had lipo on my abdomen 5 weeks ago. The day after the surgery I was 10 lbs heavier and very swollen. I wore a compression garmet for 4 weeks and now during the day. At 5 weeks, I'm the same weight, seem swollen, and am still numb in areas. I'm not seeing much in the way of results, is this normal and at 5 weeks how much of my results should be visible by now?
