I had Lipo on inner, outer, and anterior thighs on Friday and I am terrified to take off my compression garment. I took it off Sunday with help. But I tried to shower independently today and it was horrifying. My vision went totally black. Everything's spinning. Ears ringing. Eventually I got the garment back on and get back to bed. Called my PS to make sure this was normal, he said it was. But I just don't know if I can do that again. Is it okay for me to go a while without washing my legs?

At one week after liposuction there still can be a sizable amount of swelling which could account for the asymmetry. It may take a few months to see the final result of liposuction.
Hi there. Thanks for your question. You face is quite youthful and attractive. You do not need a plastic surgery solution for your concerns. General weight loss may have a positive impact on your area of concern. Good luck. Dr. Burnett
This is more common with energy based devices like vaser or laser and will get better with time. ultrasound, massage, and radiofreqency treatments help improve this more quickly. Best, Dr. emer.
