Another Touch up

YOu have had 2 procedures and are still not happy with the results. It does look like you have some uneven areas. The best solution is usually another liposuction or SmartLipo procedure to smooth out the areas. The more procedures that you have the more the risk of having irregularities. I would suggest that you seek out a few different opinions from experienced liposuction surgeons ( dermatologic surgeon, plastics, facial plastics), especially ones who have dealt with... more

Uneven areas after liposuction

When there is not a focal area of fat accumulation and it's more generalized, there may be more cellulite and uneven skin contour to begin with prior to liposuction that can be magnified after the liposuction.

When it happens, the depressed areas can improve if fat injections are done in some patients. If there are... more

You were not a good candidate for laser lipo

You have a lot of extra skin and the best treatment would have been tummy tuck. Laser lipo is a good tool for correct indication. you will not get the result you expect with out tummy tuck since you have a lot of stretch marks and lose skin.

I feel sorry for you. I wish l had the financial resources to help you find a better doctor. I have had a mini tuck in 1996, and just had smart lipo 1/17/13. While still recovering, l look in the Internet for advice about healing after the procedure. I too worry about the end result. God forbid l should fear anything close to your case, l will find another doctor for a second or third opinion. Take care, have positive attitude a keep your garments on until you are sculpture and satisfied. Best of luck.
