Once you have made the decision to have a liposuction surgery done, the last thing on earth you would expect is for the liposuction procedure to go wrong, but when it doesn't exactly turn out the way you had in mind, there are steps you can take to correct the problem.

A meeting with your surgeon before surgery is one of the most important things you can do to be fully informed of all potential side effects and risks of having liposuction performed. Going into it, you should have already had a discussion with the doctor about things including what can go wrong, how they have handled such cases in the past.

Though you have taken steps to be informed and you've made clear to your doctor that you are concerned about risks, it can happen - liposuction can go wrong.

After you have had your surgery and if you are in a lot of pain, you should make it a priority to take care of that pain. Contact your doctor to find out what options there are to manage the situation, keeping in mind that many patients have a different tolerance level after surgeries, with varying degrees of recovery periods.

The last thing you should do is procrastinate if you are feeling a lot of pain or if you don't feel right. Chances are you doctor will have seen the same thing in other patients and will know exactly how to handle it. Often, a plastic surgeon can put your fears to ease and it could be a matter of needing additional healing time.

After your liposuction surgery if something has gone wrong, the best option would be to go back to the doctor who performed your procedure to begin with. However, this may not be something you feel like doing if you are unhappy with your doctor for the negative results. For people who find themselves in this situation, there is the option of contacting a liposuction correction specialist in your neighborhood. They will assess the problem and hopefully rectify the problem - but before you commit to anything you should fully research their credentials. Of course, since the original doctor knows your body it would be good if they fixed the problem, but understandably you may not feel confident about them anymore.

Going into it, even though you are warned of the risks involved of having liposuction done, you should still be aware of what to do in case something goes wrong. As long as you are prepared, don't let a few random cases of when liposuction goes wrong change your opinion of the whole industry - because most likely the problem is fixable.
