So I had liposuction on my abdomen/waist/flanks area about 2 1/2 almost 3 weeks ago. I know that Im still swollen but there is this line on my lower back that Im afraid is just not going to go away. I have been massaging it everyday and also taking Bromelain and nothing seems to be making it diminish. And some days looks worse than others! I guess I just need clarification on if this is just swelling and will this line eventually go away. I inserted pics of my back before and my back now!
I am actually 3 weeks post-op from liposuction of ab, back & flank area. I took Bromelian supplements & I think it help a lot with swelling. I was informed not to use the lipo board under my garment but think I should where something to prevent the indentations. Do this look permanent, or normal? I haven't had a lymphatic massage. What would be your recommendation to decrease further damage to my lipo results. Will massage help, wearing foam and board under my compression garment. Worried!
I had abs and flanks lipo on 19 Nov 2016. Three and a half months after lipo, there are no results. My circumference before lipo was 36 inches (based on my trousers size). After lipo it is 39. i have had zero complications/pain/bruising. I do understand that there will be some swelling but I can not tell if I am swollen. I am taking Bromelain for swelling. The fat that was removed from my abs was injected back to my arms to make them look bigger. Is the increase circumference normal? thanks.
I have heard that bromelain (found in pineapple) is good for swelling and inflammation. Would this be a good idea to take in supplement form to aid in the resolution of post-op swelling. Does anyone suggest this to their patients and have seen positive results?
