This sounds like your swelling is getting worse when standing and walking. I would suggest you speak with your plastic surgeon about a long garment that reaches down to your feet and compresses the areas of liposuction.Best wishes, Dr. ALDO

Thank you for sharing your question. This is most likely to be due to swelling after the liposuction procedure. You should be wearing a compression garment, which is given to reduce post op swelling. You should go and see your cosmetic surgeon for further advice.

It is best to follow up with  your surgeon but it sounds like normal swelling post liposuction. Be sure to wear your compression garment and I recommend lymphatic massage for my patients post operatively. This should get better over time.
