Even though it has only been five days since my procedure, I still have the same amount of fat in my rolls. I understand that swelling will take about three months to subside and for improvements to become visible. However, I'm concerned because I didn't have much fat in that area to begin with. Will the fat be gone once the swelling resolves? Only 1.5 liters were removed from my arms, back, and abdomen.
Thank you for your question about liposuction. Swelling after liposuction can be deceiving. Even if you are slim and only had 1.5 liters of fat removed, it is normal to experience swelling. It can take up to 6 months to see your final result. I recommend consulting with a board-certified plastic surgeon for further guidance. Best wishes.
Hi! Thank you for your question. It's still early in your recovery, and instant results are not expected after liposuction. Swelling is a normal part of the healing process and can take up to 6 weeks to subside. Complete healing may take up to 6 months, during which you may experience occasional swelling. Be patient and best of luck to you.
Swelling after surgery takes time to subside, and wearing a compression garment and maintaining a healthy diet can help. The ultimate outcome can only be determined once the swelling subsides and the skin shrinks down.
Final results of liposuction may take 3 to 5 months to determine, with initial swelling and bruising subsiding over the first few weeks. The quality of the skin and the accessibility of fat play a role in the outcome. Discussing expectations with the surgeon is important.
