I had my inner and outer thigh liposuction done 13 weeks ago. The first day I took my garment off both my husband and I thought that there was not much fat removed from the thighs. And that there was buldging on the sides. However I was very swollen and it was hard to tell what is swelling and what is fat left behind. At my 7 day doctor visit. They reassured me that everything is how it's suppose to be, that is swelling and it will go down. She wanted to see me again in 4 weeks At 4 weeks I was still pretty swollen and the same looking. So she said I want to see you at 3 months. Now swelling is pretty much gone. i still have bruising and these buldges on my sides. they said it will take about 6 months for that too be gone at my 3 month check up. I just wanted to check here if anyone else has been experiencng the same issue after their lipo. I don't know what to say the doctor. Because Im not sure if they're just dismissing my consern or is this really will take time To heal. And the discoloration of the skin is that gonna go away. Is a lot more noticeable in real life then on photos. Any advice would be appreciated so that I can know where I stand.
