I'm a 28 year old male who had SmartLipo Triplex on my flanks/love handles exactly 3 weeks ago tomorrow. I'm pleased with the results as far as fat reduction goes, as I am noticeably slimmer. However, I still have hardness and some lumps on both sides, especially my right side. I have been wearing my compression garment since the procedure. Lumps were worse on my left side, but that has gone down a bit. Do you think this will go away over time? (don't mind the water on my shorts lol)
I had smart lipo done about 2.5 weeks ago on upper and lower abs and flanks. I wear my compression garment all day everyday, there were 3 days that I wore spanks instead so I could wash the garment. I haven't been working out but since it's the holidays I have been cooking and cleaning quite a bit. My stomach is uneven and I still have hard lumps. I use a small paint roller to massage and also kneading with fingers. I do this maybe for a few minutes everyday. Is this enough?
I had liposuction of the inner thighs a week ago in Florida. I did not have lymphatic massages post surgery because I had to fly back home and thought I could do it myself. I was not successful draining any liquid out of the incisions. One inner thigh looks red/hard upon touch, I don't feel liquid inside it, it just feels hard and its painful. It also radiates heat. I contacted my doctors nurse, and she hasn't responded yet (its been 24 hrs). I just want to know what it potentially may be?
I had smart-lipo 20 days ago on my ab area, flanks, waist & thighs. The cannula holes on some parts of my body have healed and closed.Others, primarily all the incisions on my flanks, waist and one on my abdomen seem to be healing MUCH slower and I can see what appears to be a closed hole? If that makes sense... theres no drainage, and theres some tenderness but no pain. I will be calling my PS today but just wanted to get some thoughts and possibly the correct questions to ask him. Thank you.
3 weeks ago I had smart lipo on my inner and outer thighs, hips and my abdomen. I had a TT 6 months earlier but still had a little pouch. Due to a scheduling error, the procedure started 2 hours late. I think my PS was in a rush and did not spend as much time as he should have. My measurements have not changed at all although it's early. Does that seem like enough fat has been removed?
Smart Lipo. My swelling has lessen; I just noticed the lumpiness & hardness approx. 3 days ago. I've been told SmoothShapes Cellulite Treatment (Lympathic Massage) will work, however, I have never had cellulite prior to my procedure.
My doctor told me to wear my compression garment for 21 days. Is it ok to continue wearing it for more than that? My other question is about wearing jeans. Is that ok to wear them after 3 weeks of the Smart lipo? And the last one. Can I wear high heels? Thanks a lot!
I had smartlipo 3 and a half weeks ago. One of my incision sites on my left hip is white with a reddish border. Is the white area a burn or is is just healing. I was told by my Dr if it did not heal he could punch it out and resuture it. Would this need to be addressed now or in the future? Thanks.
