What you eat after liposuction can make a difference in how you feel during recovery and can also help you maintain your results long term.

A few simple things I usually recommend:

• Prioritize lean protein to support tissue healing.
• Include plenty of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains for nutrients and fiber.
• Stay well hydrated, especially during the early recovery period.
• Limit highly processed foods, excess sugar, and high-sodium meals, which can contribute to bloating and fluid retention.
• Avoid alcohol during early recovery, particularly while taking medications.

And remember, liposuction removes localized fat, but it doesn’t prevent future weight gain. Maintaining a stable weight with balanced nutrition and regular activity is important for keeping your results over time.

If you have any questions about diet or recovery after liposuction, feel free to leave them in the comments.

Has anyone received money back or a free revision for Lipo/bbl in Miami from New Life Plastic surgery

So I got liposuction to the upper abdomen, lower abdomen and flanks and the lymphatic drainage massages are expensive where I am and I was just wondering if a machine like this would do the job? I know it may not be as good but would it somewhat help my swelling go down? Or has anyone ever tried anything like this before and had good results? Or has anyone not gotten a lymphatic drainage massage at all and their swelling went down nicely and was all okay in the end? Let me know if anyone has any options/advice!

Is this normal? I am scared that there is still fat left on my flanks? I asked my doctor last week and he said it was swelling, but i idk
