Possible Complications with Liposuction (Lipoplasty)
Serious complications are uncommon following liposuction in Hawaii. All individuals have bruising which may last two to three weeks, occasionally longer. A certain amount of numbness or reduced sensation in the treated area is also to be expected. As with any Hawaii cosmetic surgery, bleeding, infection and other complications are possible.
Some Hawaii liposuction patients may experience shaping irregularities in the treated areas following the procedure. Usually this is temporary, but occasionally may be a permanent result of your Hawaii cosmetic surgery. Perfect symmetry is a desired goal although small side to side differences can occur, even for the most highly-skilled Hawaii plastic surgeon. Your surgeon will make every effort to give you as smooth and even a result as possible. Nonetheless, it is important to enter into your procedure aware not only of the benefits, but also of the possible complications. Talk with Hawaii plastic surgeon Dr. Schlesinger about every question and concern you may have.
