Surgical liposuction is used to reduce the absolute number of fat cells in the obese area to achieve the purpose of reweighting and reshaping the body. But do you know the “scary” events before you want to be beautiful?
Possible “horrible” conditions.
1, oozing liquid – due to the subcutaneous residual part of the swelling fluid, there may be more oozing liquid on the day of surgery. If the dressing is permeated, use sterile gauze or clean sanitary napkins on top of the dressing, do not open the dressing yourself to avoid contaminating the wound. No bathing for 3-5 days after surgery to avoid contaminating the wound.
2, the appearance of hard knots – fat aspiration will appear after surgery, such as bruising, edema, skin numbness, subcutaneous hard knots and other surgical concomitant symptoms, generally in 1-2 weeks to subside.
3, long-term wear tight clothing – continue to wear tight elastic clothing for 3-6 months, according to the local situation at any time to adjust the pressure of elastic clothing.
4、Activities with “disease” – early postoperative light activities, not always bed rest. If the aspiration volume is less than 2,000 ml, daily activities can be carried out, and those with mental or light physical labor can work as usual without rest.
5、Bad results – Those who are not satisfied with the post-operative results can have another surgery for correction 6 months to 1 year after surgery.
6, the skin becomes super sensitive – the sensory function of the skin is abnormal after fat aspiration, and thermal damage to the skin is not easily detected, so physical therapy that generates heat should be used with caution after surgery. There are recent reports of cases where infrared therapies have led to the formation of large blisters on the skin after fat aspiration.
