Before & After

Are There Possible Liposuction Complications?

As with just about any surgical procedure, there are some risks that come along with liposuction. By choosing a board-certified doctor with a high level of experience like Dr. Rosen, however, you can very effectively mitigate quite a lot of these risks. The risk for complications increases when large volumes of fat are removed. Adverse events include but are not limited to: infection, lidocaine toxicity, unsatisfactory cosmetic results, delayed healing, clot formation, excessive fluid loss, trauma to surrounding tissues, and unfavorable drug reactions.

What If I Gain Weight After Liposuction?

Fat does not return to the area treated with liposuction, though we strongly recommend that you initiate a healthy lifestyle with a balanced diet and regular exercisebefore and after your liposuction. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle after your procedure goes a very long way towards maintaining your results and keeping that ideal body type. A significant amount of weight gain will show in other areas of your body where you did not receive liposuction so we recommend maintaining your targeted weight based on your height and body type.

Liposuction involves small incisions, so any scarring is typically minimal and fades over time. The scars are usually placed in less noticeable areas.

How soon will I see results after liposuction?

Initial results can be seen once the swelling and bruising subside, usually within a few weeks. Final results are generally visible after several months once the body has fully healed.
