“I’m 21 years old, with fit and athletic body with muscle and a large frame (165 lbs). Former swimmer. The liposuction will be performed in the upper and lower abdomen and hip area (love handles). How long is the recovery concerning swelling/bruising in an initial state? Past surgeries involving knee went great, rapid recovery. High tolerance to pain. Also, additional comments, recommendations and predictions always welcome. Thank you.”, a RealSelf user asked.
“Dear Jackie, you seem to be a great candidate for liposuction. You should have a great result in the right sculpting hands. Bruising should last less than a week. Swelling may be linger based in the procedure. In our offices, we use garments as well as early post op lymphatic massage and endermologie to decrease recovery time and improve final outcome. Please discuss with your surgeon prior to undergoing these procedures. Best of luck.”, Aristocrat’s certified surgeon Dr. Kevin Tehrani, M.D., F.A.C.S explained.
