    I am not positive, but I thought the results were immediate. The problem will be possible bruising, otherwise, you should see this immediatly. Good luck!

    I’m pretty sure it takes about two weeks for the swelling to go down, and then it’s all gone. It is instant though, they just suck excess fat out of the area you get the surgery done at. Liposuction has negative factors, I hope you have read up on them.

    I am a plastic surgeon in Houston and can say that depending upon the amount removed- the first couple of days you will think the doctor put fat in you due to the swelling! After about a week to ten days, you will start to notice improvements in your contour. If you wear your compressive garment and limit your physical activity- you will see marked results after 3 to 6 weeks.

    Remember- it takes a full 6 months to see the final result after liposuction.

    Be sure you are being treated by a surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery- you can research your doctor here-
