Can anyone who has had liposuction tell me what to expect after getting it done?
Question:
Answers:
After surgery, you will likely experience some fluid drainage from the incisions. Occasionally, a small drainage tube may be inserted beneath the skin for a couple of days to prevent fluid build-up. To control swelling and to help your skin better fit its new contours, you may be fitted with a snug elastic garment to wear over the treated area for a few weeks. Your doctor may also prescribe antibiotics to prevent infection.
Don't expect to look or feel great right after surgery. Even though the newer techniques are believed to reduce some post-operative discomforts, you may still experience some pain, burning, swelling, bleeding and temporary numbness. Pain can be controlled with medications prescribed by your surgeon, though you may still feel stiff and sore for a few days.
It is normal to feel a bit anxious or depressed in the days or weeks following surgery. However, this feeling will subside as you begin to look and feel better.
You will see a noticeable difference in the shape of your body quite soon after surgery. However, improvement will become even more apparent after about four to six weeks, when most of the swelling has subsided. After about three months, any persistent mild swelling usually disappears and the final contour will be visible.

Liposuction helps to suck out excess fat from either your tummy or thighs or any other part of the body. I warn you that this is not a natural way of removing fat. You may have pain at the site for atleast 3 - 4 days. If you are not morbidly obese I would advise you to go through a calorie burning programme rather than liposuction.
the only thing to expect is another appointment because you never change the way you eat, the fat continues to pile on, then next thing you know, your back on the surgery table again
I read about liposuction surgery on the internet,
I think u should read it too; this could be helpful to you
