It has been 1 week since my surgery, which involved liposuction on my abdomen, flanks, and conservative liposuction on my inner thighs. I also had breast implants at the same time. I'm 27 years old, 5'8" tall, and my weight was 165 pounds before the operation and 173 pounds post-op. I'm experiencing little to no pain and wearing my compression garment 24/7 along with epifoam. It's not a major concern, but I'm curious to understand how this weight increase is possible.
I typically remove up to 5 liters of fat in one session, and the results are often dramatic even within the first week. However, it's important to note that some patients may experience significant swelling, which can mask the results. It is advisable to allow 3 to 6 months before making any judgments on the final outcome.
You're still in the early stages of the healing process, so it's premature to judge the results of the procedure. Swelling will persist for several more weeks. Continue following up with your surgeon as scheduled for progress monitoring. Best of luck!
Weight gain due to swelling after surgery is common but typically subsides over time, allowing patients to notice the appropriate weight loss. It is important to maintain a healthy diet during the healing phase and avoid excessive eating, snacks, fried foods, and eating late to avoid weight gain and preserve the results of the surgery.
Swelling is expected in the early post-surgery period, and it takes time for all swelling to subside. Wearing the compression garment is recommended.
