Tumescent liposuction results. Should I be worried? 3 months post-op. (Photos)

Question

I had tumescent liposuction 3 months ago. I wore compartments for 8 weeks and have been getting regular massages. I don’t feel like this is a normal result. Should I be concerned? What should I do?

Kenneth Hughes, MD · Answer

Hello. Great question. I am sorry for your post op difficulties. A personal examination is needed to properly address your lumps. Please schedule a follow up appointment with your surgeon.

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

It is too soon to tell what your final results will be. You have swelling, which can last up to 6 months after your procedure. I recommend adding hyperbaric oxygen and lymphatic massage along with your compression to help decrease swelling. To improve your final results, I also recommend adding vanquish for further fat removal, exilis/venus legacy for skin tightening, cellutone/z wave to make the skin smooth, remove scar tissue, and improve the skin’s appearance. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Connie Hiers, MD, FACS · Answer

No, that is not normal results and you may need another month of compression. Please let your surgeon check you.
