Risks and side effects
Liposuction may cause swelling, bruising, pain, edema, skin irregularities or tightness, asymmetry, pigmentation, and scars at the small incision sites. Rarely, complications such as infection, hematoma, numbness, or reduced sensation may occur. On the face (cheeks and under the chin), excessive hollowing of the cheeks, skin laxity, asymmetry of the contour, and a temporary feeling of nerve weakness or difficulty moving the corners of the mouth may occur.
These symptoms may occur during recovery and most improve over time, but their severity and the recovery period vary from person to person. If you have any concerns, please consult your doctor rather than judging for yourself.
