I don’t personally believe that postoperative care can change Liposuction results.I don’t think removing your compression garment has anything to do with your outcome.The results of your procedure was 100% based on how the procedure was done.If you have a crease in your mid abdomen, it is more likely that your surgeon attempted to create a six pack line with further high definition or etching. I also am not a fan of high definition or etching type work.The outcomes are permanent and more or less impossible to reverse.Rarely does it look natural and high definition Liposuction puts people at risk for looking deformed later in life, if they gain weight or develop any skin laxity.This includes normal loss of skin elasticity with age. High definition Liposuction is just a bad idea in my opinion. Delivering consistent quality, liposuction results is more difficult than most people realize.Improving on the outcome of poorly done liposuction is difficult, and sometimes not possible.This is especially true if the procedure was aggressive, especially high, definition or etching, when the purpose is to remove all subcutaneous fat at muscle intersections.Attempts at improving the outcome with treatments like fat grafting tend to not be successful because the area that needs volume is completely lacking in host tissue making grafted fat, survival dismal.I can’t emphasize enough the importance of provider selection, and having a clear understanding of what typical results look like in the hands of each provider.I recommend patients do this by having multiple in person, consultations and avoiding virtual consultations whenever possible.During each consultation, ask each provider to open up their portfolio and show you their entire collection of before, and after pictures of previous patients who had similar body characteristics. Being shown a handful of pre-selected images, representing only the best results of a providers career may be insufficient to get a clear understanding of what average results look like in the hands of each provider.In my opinion and experience provider should have no difficulty showing you the before, and after pictures of at least 50 previous patients for commonly performed procedures. There’s no correct number of consultations needed to find the right provider.The biggest mistake I see patients make is having only one consultation and then scheduling surgery.I realize you’ve already had your procedure, but for those who are contemplating having Liposuction, it is important to focus on the variables that matter most and this is always going to be provider selection.The more consultation, someone schedules, the more likely they are defined the better provider.In your case, I don’t think improving. The outcome is going to be easy.Whether it’s worth having more surgery should be thought through carefully.Once all the fat has been removed. It is inherently difficultto change the outcome I’m not sure if your provider was the one who told you that taking off the compression garment let your outcome.I personally don’t believe that compression garments have anything to do with final results.The outcome of the procedure is determined when the surgeon it’s done with the procedure.There is no scientific literature, supporting compression garments as having any impact on Liposuction results.Blaming the patient for poor outcomes is one of the oldest tricks in the book.Best,Mats Hagstrom, MD
