After a body lift procedure, swelling is expected and typically subsides gradually over several weeks to months, with most noticeable improvement within the first few weeks; following your surgeon’s post-operative care instructions, including wearing compression garments, maintaining proper hydration, and avoiding strenuous activities, can help minimize swelling and promote a smoother recovery process. It’s important to be patient during this healing period and to reach out to your surgeon if you have any concerns or experience excessive swelling or other unusual symptoms.
