Treatment Protocol after Liposuction
Liposuction does not improve the appearance of cellulite, it simply reduces fat volume. The appear-
ance of wavy tissue, orange peel and dimpling remain.
Liposuction procedure
The incision sites where the cannulas are inserted are very small, 3-4 mm. Each opening is
closed with a dissolving stitch that can’t be seen. A small dressing is placed over each incision site.
The patient is then placed in a compression girdle to control swelling and bruising.
Post operative information
Z
In post-operative phases, most patients feel sore, with some areas more painful than others.
For example, the abdomen is usually more sensitive than the thighs or buttocks.
Z
Bruising, swelling, and draining are normal after liposuction.
Z
The time for recovery depends on the number of treated areas.
Z
Patients are given a tight compression garment to wear 24 hours a day, usually for four
weeks. This helps with swelling and contouring.
Z
Recovery depends on the individual patient and post-operative care.
Z
It is usually safe to return to normal sporting activities in 4-6 weeks or as soon as they feel
comfortable.
Liposuction Problems
After the compression girdle is removed, the tissues are hard and lumpy and the skin is unable to
hold them in place. Ridges form where fat was removed by the liposuction cannulas. These areas
must be massaged daily.
The P.R. Cell 2G can help
Prior to surgery
It is recommended to perform
six (6) P.R. Cell treatments, prior to surgery.
This will improve skin
elasticity, reduce the pitted appearance (visible after liposuction) and shorten recovery time
