Vaser Lipo Post Op Swelling, Bruising, and Numbness

Graph1 illustrates the statistics for swelling to subside after Vaser Lipo.

The vertical bars represent the percentage of patients whose swelling subsides by the days shown beneath them on the horizontal axis. 

The most common case is 16 days, and this occurred for 40% of patients in the study.  The graph also shows that 2% of patients needed as many as 44 days (more than six weeks) before their swelling subsided. 

In contrast, 2% required only four days to see a reduction in swelling.

Graph2 shows the same data as in Graph1, but as a cumulative percentage.

It shows that half of all patients need 14 days to recover from swelling, but to achieve a level of 90% required up to 24 days. 

This says that 13 of the 129 patients from this study needed more than 3.5 weeks for swelling to subside.

The data shows that significant numbers of patients do have extended periods of swelling after their Vaser procedure.

Graph3 presents the figures for Vaser Lipo bruising to subside.

16 days was the most common, 30% of all patients, and for one person in the study 36 days was required.

Graph4 illustrates that half of the study patients saw bruising diminish after 11 days, but that 16 days were needed to achieve a level of 90%.

Graph5 shows the stats for numbness to subside.  16 days was the most common duration, but for some numbness persisted up to 32 days after their procedure.

The final graph illustrates that half of all patients were over numbness after 16 days, while 90% needed up to 30 days.
