Botched Liposuction - Abdomen - Stomach Muscles No Longer Work - Please Help

Question

Damaged & injured after liposuction on upper & lower abdomen 1.5 years go. The most devastating thing I've ever experienced! The scariest thing is that I can no longer clench my stomach muscles/core/center/pelvic floor. It affects my posture drastically! How can I fix this? I hope this can be fixed. Thank you so much for your help!

You did not post photos, so I cannot be specific. However, you can increase your abdominal muscle strength with nonsurgical EMSculpt. Liposuction should not have affected your muscles.

It’s hard for us to understand what your problem is based on what you describe.
If you want us to make an assessment regarding the outcome of a plastic surgery procedure then please post proper before and after pictures.
If you don’t have before and after pictures, then ask your provider to forward the pictures they took.
Liposuction does not affect anything other than your subcutaneous fat layer.
I suggest you follow up with your provider or schedule a few in person second opinion consultations with other plastic surgeons in your community.
Best,
Matt Hagstrom MD
