Hi I am one week an one day post op of liposuction in my flanks and outer/inner thighs. I had my One week follow up appointment yesterday and all went well. This morning I noticed my Both of my feet near my ankles are blue. They are not painful and with the naked eye they do not look swollen, however when I take a photograph it looks swollen to me in the photograph. Should I be concerned about this? Is this a reaction to the liposuction?

Answer: One week post op Lipo, why are my feet blue?
Hello.
Great question. I am sorry for your post op difficulties. At 7 weeks it is still early to see your final results. Swelling may be present. I will suggest following up with your surgeon to rule out any fluid collection.
Dear Lawoman,
Hello and thank you for your excellent question. You may want to look into a body contouring procedure that combines both liposuction with laser, radiofrequency (RF), or acoustic therapy to produce the best balance of fat reduction and skin tightening and smoothing for your body...
Hello.
Great question. I am sorry for your post op difficulties. However, with out any images, it is difficult to properly address your concerns. Keep I mind that it can take up to six months for all the swelling to subside.
