It has been 12 weeks since I had smart lipo to my abdomen and there is still one big lump to my lower abdomen. Do I continue to massage it or has it improved all that it is going to? Also, do I keep wearing the compression garment because I have been wearing it all of the time except massage and shower. Thank you for your time.

Hi! I have my immediate post op patients wear compression for 72 hours before taking it off. After that 24/7 for 3 weeks, taking off to shower and wash the garment. If you have additional questions I would check with your surgeon. Best of luck to you!
Thank you for your question. Unfortunately the best route to look into would be a combination of a tummy tuck and revision SmartLipo. The tummy tuck will rid you of the loose skin, giving you a flatter more smoother appearance, while the revision SmartLipo will contouring and detail...
You will keep improving for 6 months after Smartlipo so i would not rush to do it again before 6 months. if you are treating a different area with Smartlipo, you can do it the next day.david berman md
