Can anything be done to fix liposuction tunnel scars?

April 22, 2011
Asked By:TJR in Savannah, GA

Procedures; Ist thread lift, liposuction- jawline, chin, and neck. 2nd Revision-neck lift incision under chin but not behind the ears and thread lift taken out. I'm 2 months into healing after neck lift and 4 months since first procedure. I also have tunnel scars going down my neck from the cannula instrument and two or three dents. Not to mention I have mandibular nerve damage which controls my lower lip so I also have a lovely crooked smile. What if anything can be done to fix all this?
