A member asked:
Had i-lipo & ultrasound cavitation 4 days ago, my old stretch marks became red and bruised immediately after. how long will it last for?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe 7-10 days: It is not uncommon for stretch marks in the area to get swollen and discolored after surgery and most of the time it is gone in 7-10 days but...I have seen this last for up to 3 weeks! let's hope not!
