Thigh lift and lipo problems

John P. Stratis, MD answers: Options to remove redness and bumps from Thigh Lift and Liposuction?

Here are the pics. Is there anything that can be done to help reduce redness in Thigh Lift scars? The skin seems to be stretched and pulled and it is still not faded to white after two years.

Also I had bad Liposuction on front of thighs that should never have been done at that area, probably. My thighs used to be well rounded but now are flattened in some areas and bumpy on other parts. It's very uneven. I am so sad.

I had had it redone, filled with filler but it's still under filled, uneven. I'll try anything. It was way better before I started. My doc says "work out" the muscles. Thank you!

Without seeing your before pictures I would not comment on the degree of improvement you have had. I can tell you that if you had these procedures done to improve the droopy cellulite appearence you probably are as good as these procedures can make you. This is a very difficult challange for the plastic surgeon, and the patient.

In terms of what you can do-scar revision about one year afetr the original surgery and continue minor fat injections.
