Two months after Liposuction and the result is uneven, is this permanent? (photos)

mpavFeb 1, 2017

I had liposuction (Vaser) two months ago exactly. I was fairly lean so was looking for more of a contour. Initially happy with the result, but I have unevenness around my navel. I followed full procedure wearing the garment for three weeks full time, another three weeks at night. The uneven areas feel hard, so hoping it is just swelling. It was worse earlier on, and does seem a bit better in the morning.

Hi, 10 days is too soon to tell because some swelling and bruising may persist for 6-8 weeks. It varies greatly between patients. Final #results can usually be seen 2-4 months later as the swelling continues to diminish and contours become more defined, but improvement will continue for 4–6 ...

Thank you for your question. Photos would've been helpful. First of all, VASER Hi Def Lipo is a sculpting procedure and NOT a fat debulking procedure. It is best for patients with a BMI of 30 or less. The fact that you did not have a lot removed, tells me that you were in good shape for this hig...

I am sorry to read of your disappointment. Following your #vaser procedure, the final results are typically most noticeable 2-4 months later. It's best to wait 6 to 12 months depending on the reason for #revision. As with all #cosmetic surgery, results will be rewarding if expectations are...
