I had a lipo done twice, the first time the result was bumpy and hard in some areas, the second was even worse. What can I do? has anyone experianced the same? anything helps.

I had lipo and breast reduction done almost a year ago. Initially, I was disappointed because I had not truly lost much weight. My total lost was about 20 lbs but that was with strenous exercise and dieting. However; the difference I saw in my clothing was incredible! I am in the exact size I wanted to be, I've gone from a 16/18 to now a 12! I can wear M in tea shirts now. I have gained about 7 lbs back but I blame my own eating habits although my exercise is regular. I had an excellent experience with the surgery and my doctor is simply THE best. Only a few hiccups but not even worth mentionning compared to the results I have got. My doctor kept telling me not to focus on my WEIGHT but on my new shape! He kept saying "I'm changing your shape" and that is exactly what I have, a new curvaceous shape. My only complaint would be my breast which although I had a reduction and a lift, I virtually fit into the same size bra. My breast still seem large to me but when I compare my before and after photos I really see that they are no longer hanging to my navel but are uplifted although I am in a double D. I can sometimes go bra-less. My nipples are still erect most of the time but I now use the genie bra although it does not offer much support, it is extremely comfortable and is padded and hide my erect nipples. Overall, I AM extremely happy! I wore the garment for the time required, adherred to a diet and used a trainer. My past abuse to my body has caused my metabolism to become super slow but that's alright. I am now focusing on losing my arms and thighs to fit the rest of my body! All the best to all of you out there.

I know this is an old post, but this is definitely a fluid collection. After liposuction, the fluid they use to numb you up inside, and fluid from swelling, can collect. Also, the fluid is going to settle to the lower point, in this case, just above the pelvic bone.
You can actually use a rolling pin to help push fluid around and encourage absorption.

This responder is absolutely correct. I have had lipo twice with great results, two separate areas. You must wear your garments to compress the swollen, injured tissue, to prevent your body holding all that fluid in, 24 hours a day for the first four weeks, then choose either all day or all night for te next two weeks. Purists will wear the compression garments for three months, for best results. Plus you need to consume 10-12 cups of non-caffeine fluid every day (water and low cal Gatorade are best) for six weeks. Finally, and most importantly, starting on day 4-5 pot surgery, start massaging the lipo areas ten minutes, three time a day. This will help push the fluid through your system, and break up scar tissue (that hard feeling under your skin) that is forming. Massage for six weeks, or even longer. This will prevent bumpy, lumpy and dimply lipo results. It's a pain in the neck but so worth looking great the rest of your life! And start slowly exercizing, when you dr. Clears you, usually at two weeks, with light walking. Increase a little every week but don't over do it! Good luck!

My dr suggested spanx or gridles as long as the area is compress. My co-worker suggest using a towel under the compression garment. I couldn't take that garment either. I am still dealing with the hard parts, but I am instructed by my doctor to massage the areas.

My friend had Liposuction with the same side effects as you. Hardness, hot, sore and protruding. She ended up having an infection. It would be good for you to check this out with a blood test and Cat Scan. Best Wishes--Carlene

Was it done in Fort Mill, SC? I had lower abdomen liposuction done April 30. And after 11 days my lower stomach hardened and remains that way. The doctor said it's normal.
