Is my pain almost 3 months after Liposuction still considered normal? (Photo)

Hello and thank you for your question. The healing process for large volume liposuction does take a long time. Studies have shown that swelling persists for up to 9 months after surgery. The discomfort you are experiencing is most likely normal, but without physical examination it is not possible to give you a concrete answer. You should take time to see your board certified plastic surgeon if you have any concerns. Best wishes!Traci Temmen, MD

Large volume liposuction is associated with prolonged recovery period. However, for better evaluation of your symptoms it is better to consult your surgeon. Best of luck!
