It frustrates me that between my waist and my hips, on the sides of my pelvic bones, I have a dent, causing me to have like a "second waist" instead of the curvy "guitar shape". Three months ago I got liposuction done on my love handles only ( I'm 5'7 and 127lbs) thinking it would solve the issue but it didn't really solve it. It made it more subtle, but I still have the dent. Is there anything I can do to achieve the curvy shape instead of having the 2 waists?

Thanks for an excellent question. I see many patients like you who have small pockets of fat and maybe some loose skin in a few trouble spots despite diet and excercise. These pockets can be part of your genetic build or occur after children. The most important part...
Thanks for a good question. I think you can safely resume light cardio excercises, but your swelling may in my experience increase. This should not affect the final result. I am a big advocate of compression and girdles-please speak to your plastic surgeon.
I agree with others in that a facelift at 21 time won't be beneficial. This is more a volume problem as can be corrected with fillers. Juvederm or alike are a best first choice as they will go away if you don't like the result. If you like it then PRP-fat injections would be my preference. Good luck
