Can you still get pregnant after liposuction? Can you still carry a child if you get abdominal liposuction? I haven't gotten that because I'm too young; however, I am planning on it. Will I still be able to support a pregnancy after getting liposuction?
four days after liposuction and it looks horrible? I had tumescent liposuction on the "saddlebags" of my outer thighs. The day after surgery, I noticed the results! The saddlebags were gone, although the area was bruised and lumpy looking. Now, after four days, my thighs look almost as big as they were before. If I hadn't seen the 850 cc's of fat with my own eyes, I would swear nothing had been removed. What is going on? Is it just swollen? Is it going to shrink again? Is there anything I should be doing to encourage the swelling to go down? Arrggghh! wow, thanks you guys for being encouraging and nice!! so many ppl are mean when they answer questions, maybe the anonymity makes them feel powerful. thanks, everyone. :)
Do you have to wear a drain after liposuction? I had a tummy tuck about 5 months ago and had to wear a drain for about a month after. I'm having lipo in a few months and I'm wondering if I'll have to wear a drain after that too. Thanks!
What is the correct handling of a patient after liposuction? On Tuesday, I received liposuctions on areas from my armpits and on down to me knees (essentially my back, buttocks, abdomen, sides, inner and outer thighs, anterior thighs, and knees. After completing surgery, I was taken to an aftercare clinic to recuperate where the nurse would pull me upwards out of the bed by my right arm and order me in a stern voice to 'push the rest of your body up using your other arm'. This was very difficult and painful, yet she would not help me despite my protestations. Walking upright was very difficult and placing myself on the toilet was very difficult (she offered me no assistant in that endeavor either). My plan had been to stay at the aftercare facility for two days, but I fled the following morning with the assistance of emergency transportation. My questions regards whether a patient who has just undergone a major surgery should be handled more delicately than I. I felt that the nurse's handling of me post surgery increased my pain level.
After liposuction, (tummy), does the fat automatically start to return? Asssuming a better-than average healthy diet and life-style, regular excercise, and non-obesity, but a stubborn bulge in the abdomen that even "bums and tums" regimes won't shift, would liposuction of the excess tummy-fat be a permanent answer? - or would it, (like ordinary diets) simply result in the metabolic system returning to starvation mode, with resultant storage of calories as fat? Thanks HarryMay....that sounds fairly positive and definitive..... Thanks Zestful One. That helps.... I'd love to hear from someone who's actually had it done... but thanks anyway.
How many days off do you need after liposuction? How many days does it take to feel good enough to go back to work? I know everyone is different, and I know Dr's say 3-5, BUT how was it for you or someone you know? Time frame is just as important as cost because I don't want to miss more than a week of work if I don't have to

What kind of painful after-effects are there from liposuction? I'm considering liposuction, and I was wanting to know more about the after-effects. Besides the obvious lowering of fat content, is there any pain or soreness? What happens to the area in which they insert the vacuum (any pus, bruising, etc.)? Would it be something I should take an extended period of time off work for? Basically anything important that I should know beforehand would be helpful.

Loose Skin after Liposuction? I am 23, I had liposuction back when I was 18 on my stomach area. After healing, I was left with loose skin around my waist, its kinda weird cause its pretty flat when Im standing, but buldges out when Im sitting. My skin had already stretched a bit when I was overweight, but I think the skin also didnt heal property and tight after the surgery. I think this is common and the reason why people go back for a tummy tuck. I really really dont want any more plastic surgery or the big scar that comes with a tummy tuck, has anyone ever heard of stories of people who work out/ do sit-ups like crazy and tighten up this area naturally without a tummy tuck???

how to get rid of extra skin after liposuction and weight loss? I have underwent a major weight loss, i used to be 300lbs, now i'm around 170lbs using the crush diet( fruits)+normal excercise. I have stopped the extreme diet since 4months now I eat healthy (fruits, veggies, milk, protein), and excercise (cardio/weight). I also did a mini lipo on my chest and lower abdomen in feb 2007.The problem which i'm facing is that i seem to be having extra skin on my body (not the saggy type, only shows when skin is pulled), especially the top (breast, abs, arms). I know that the best way is through weight-lifting, which i'm doing already, but haven't really noticed much difference. I'm also wearing a special suit which is used after liposuction to hold the skin. So it could be three reasons why it's not going, either the suit, my excercise, or what i eat. Would appreciate some advise. i would also like to know if there's anything else that i can do to eliminate the excess skin (cream, medication, laser .etc)
iS SWELLING OF ANKLES AFTER LIPOSUCTION OF OUTER THIGHS NORMAL? i HAD LIPOSUCTION OF MY OUTER THIGHS AND HIPS 10 DAYS AGO. i KNOW THAT IT WILL TAKE TIME FOR ALL THE SWELLING TO GO DOWN.

can liposuction be used to reduce weight to get into the guard or military? I have a friend that is talking seriously about getting liposuction done to help him lose part of the 90 lbs he needs to lose to get into the military. Obviously its not authorized or suggested, I think he's planning to not tell them. Ideas? Is he right -will it work? What are the moral implications?
Would it be a waste to get liposuction before getting pregnant? I'm not planning on getting pregnant immediately, but I'm 19 and I plan on having kids. The only area I want to get liposuction on is my stomach. In the event that I get pregnant in the next few years, will it ruin the effect? Has anybody had liposuction prior to pregnancy?
