Creating a Gluteal Crease with Smart Lipo, Is this Possible? (photo)

I am 5'7 125 lbs. I have a round and medium size butt however i do not have a gluteal crease. one side of my butt has a very slight crease & the other side it doesnt.It just looks like it is attached to the back of my leg. however i recently went to a smart lipo office in PA ( top doc actually saw him on TV) and at my consultation i explained what i wanted and asked if it could be done to create a crease and would removing a bit on inner thighs and create a mid crease. is this possible?

A: It is possible and may require some fat grafting

the main concern is taking too much fat and making deep fold. I would consider fat grafting in combination with liposuction.

Can Smart Lipo Be a Cause of Umbilical Hernia?

I had smart lipo 6 months ago I never felt rite after that... I didn't gain weight and I even worked out in pool . Swimming everyday.. I noticed my stomach growing instead of getting smaller.. We are now in November , and I find out I have an umbilical hernia that is somewhat strangulated.. Could smart lipo be the reason? I am so upset that I now have to have surgery to fix this. I'm worried they may have to cut my stomach. I did have a tummy tuck 8 yrs ago and will feel devastated .

A: Umbilical hernia not related to the laser lipo

You may have developed new hernia or it may  have been there and now more noticeable post liposuction.

Can Smart Lipo Help with the Bulging Around the Tummy Tuck Incision Line?

Hello! I Wanted to Know if Smart Lipo Can Help with the Bulging Around the Incision Line?   I had a tummy tuck on 03/2011 and I am not at all happy with my results. Frankly, I am disgusted with how my scar appears its not straight across. I don't believe my cosmetic surgeon removed enough skin and fat. I am unhappy and fearful i will never have a normal figure.

A: You may benefit from lipo/revision

You have extra skin and fatty tissue overhang. You would get better result from tummy tuck revision and liposuction. This will help to even out the scar and remove fatty tissue at the same time.
