With SmartLipo you must be a little patient. Swelling will starts to go down after about two weeks. If you start doing massage about twice a week 10-14 days after the procedure, you will likely see the majority of your swelling gone by about 4-6 weeks. Bruising with the SmartLipo is normally minimal and any bruising that is present will normally resolve within 2-4 weeks.
To help reduce swelling and bruising even faster, try oral arnica (500mg three times a day). Note that numbness over the treated area also last several months. Remember, it really takes about 3-4 months to really see something close to final results, and your skin and soft tissue will continue to remodel for over a year. If you are still not happy with the results at 3-4 months, it is time to take to your provider about a possible touch-up.
Fellas (and you ladies, too) - if you suffer from varicose veins, don't wait until they get really bad to do something about them. Make an appointment with Colorado Skin and Vein and Dr. Verebelyi and go get them fixed! You will not regret it!
