Liposuction Lumps 3 Years Post-op
I had liposuction on my stomach three years ago, and it has never been even. What bothers me even more are the areas left with hard bumps all under the skin. I'm 21 years old and psychologically devastated because of this. Is there any procedure that can be done to fix this? My stomach was really the only place that ever held fat and there is no where else on my body that I can imagine taking a fat graft from. I just dont know what to do.

You probably need a liposuction revision
Sometimes after liposuction there are areas that did not get suctioned adequately. This can usually be taken care of by doing more liposuction in the high areas.
Usually, if you go back to your original surgeon, there will be a price break on the cost of the procedure, depending upon that particular offices' policies.
Check with a board certified plastic surgeon in your area to see what would be best for your paricular situation.

Lumps after liposuction
Liposuction is a safe, popular, and effective way to contour the body. Patients should be aware of the recovery process after liposuction. Immediately after the surgery, they will experience a moderate amount of pain, swelling, and bruising.
In your case, it is possible that those lumps may be due to excess swelling or scar tissue as your body's reaction to the previous surgery. Your best bet is to be evaluated by a board-certified plastic surgeon with a great deal of experience...
