Hi Nicky, any lipo can result in lumps, bumps and ropes of scar tissue. While in most cases, these would resolve over time, in MANY cases, they simply do not. This will be a waiting game for you. Give it at least 6 months. I just had Vaser High Def lipo on my entire torso, and am thrilled with the results. I had 2,000 ccs removed (about 8.5 cups' worth), so it was a fair amount. But I have NO lumps, bumps or ropes. This surgery corrected unsatisfying results from a lipo I had done 5 years ago. So you CAN get a revision if need be, but it's simply way too soon to think about that now. You don't want to add layers of scar tissue on top of each other. Ask your surgeon about getting ultrasound treatments and/or cold laser, to help resolve the bumps. You need to move NOW on this. These treatments stimulate the circulation and healing to the area while also softening up the tissue under your skin. You feel nothing. The treatments last 30 seconds to maybe 5 minutes per side. But the key is to treat the lumps before they really harden up. GOOD LUCK to you in getting this resolved, and let us know what your surgeon says.
