What Causes Abdominal Swelling After Liposuction?
Thank you for contacting HCM. How much of fat they have taken out during the procedure ? if they have taken out more subcutaneous (underneath skin) fat, our skin becomes less tight and hangs down giving the appearance of swelling. Do you have any pain or fever or chills ? If you have any of these, docs must rule out infections. have they seen any Gas underneath the skin in the CT scan.
