E-Liposuction. com tells us that a patient should expect some drainage from the doctorÂ’s incisions. In most cases the drainage is minimal but may last for several days. If the physician suspects the wounds will have excess drainage, he or she may insert a drainage tube or bag to collect any excess fluids and minimize discomfort. The patient will also need to wear special garments, called compression garments, that keep the treated area compressed and tight while in recovery.
Swelling, bruising, and pain are common complaints in the recovery phase after liposuction. Although these are common, in most liposuction surgeries, patients should not experience excessive swelling or pain. It is advised to contact the attending physician should these side effects occur. Only light activities are advised during the recovery phase, and heavy work or exercise is strongly discouraged. It is vital to let the body fully heal before returning to any strenuous activity.
After the initial recovery, most people are satisfied and/or happy with the results of the surgery. It is important to have realistic expectations prior to liposuction surgery; this may reduce the chances of being unhappy with the end result. The American Association of Plastic Surgeons urges any prospective patient to be realistic and to realize that advertisements showing before and after photos are often misleading – individual results will vary.
According to E-Liposuction. com, potential complications may include scarring, a bumpy appearance around the liposuction site, less-than-dramatic results, and the return of fatty deposits after the surgery. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle including a healthy diet and an exercise regimen can keep the fat from coming back.
Liposuction is not necessarily a permanent weight loss solution unless it is used in conjunction with a reasonable lifestyle. In most people, scarring is temporary and the incision sites are small, however, in some people the scarring is more prominent – the cosmetic surgeon should inform the patient of how to care for the incision sites to help reduce scarring.
