I had sculpsure done one week ago, on my outer (lateral) thighs. They are SO SORE to the touch, and feel swollen/hard. The best way to describe it, is it feels like I was hit with a hammer on my outer thighs! Is this much soreness normal??

Answer: Soreness After SculpSure Yes, some soreness or tenderness after SculpSure is completely normal in the week following your procedure. Some people experience more intense soreness than others. We tell people it feels like you're sore after a very intense workout. It should subside soon but as always if you have any concerns be sure to check in with your treatment provider.

Answer: Extreme soreness one week after SculpSure! No, what you are experiencing is not typical for most patients, but it is certainly not abnormal. There is a wide spectrum of what patients go through post-procedure, but for most any soreness is relatively short lived. You can use Tylenol if needed, but it is best to try and avoid anti-inflammatories if possible, because you don't want to minimize or halt the inflammatory response which rids the destroyed fat cells. Massaging the areas several times daily will also help, and be sure to drink plenty of water to stay well hydrated. Symptoms should improve with time.
