If you're considering liposuction surgery in the Bay
Area...
After the liposuction surgery, compression garments may
be used to accelerate the healing process when large amounts
are suctioned from one area during the liposuculpting surgery.
These help the skin conform to the new body contours.
In some cases, secondary procedures such as Abdominoplasty or Body
Contouring After Massive Weight Loss may reduce excess skin. Otherwise,
elastic bandages help control swelling and compress the
skin to your body’s new contours. Rarely, Dr. Mosser will place
a small temporary drain near the incision to help remove
excess fluid.
Right
after liposuction surgery, you will
probably experience some of the following temporary discomforts:
- swelling
- soreness
- bruising
- general pain
These are perfectly normal. Dr. Mosser will provide detailed instructions
about how to care for the surgical site with topical
medications and how to use compression garments. The
initial healing from liposuction will take five to ten
days, during which time sutures will be removed, if necessary.
Swelling will take longer to dissipate: up
to several months after your liposuction procedure for
it to completely resolve, and
incision lines will shrink over time.
Results—the Amazing New You
As swelling recedes from your liposuction surgery, you
will begin to see the new contours of your body. You
will feel the confidence and pride that are natural upshot
of liposuction. As long as you maintain your weight with
a healthy diet and plenty of exercise, your new contours
will be permanent.
If you are considering liposuction
surgery in the San Francisco Bay Area, Dr. Mosser is your top
choice in expertise, safety and artistry.
