I am 3 months post op. I had my surgery from dr plaza in Cali Colombia. My ab etching is uneven so is my skin. (photo)

Hello 1confused doll,
Thank you for your question regarding how do you fix uneven skin after ab etching three months ago in Columbia. Thank you for your question and pictures. Of course, a thorough physical examination will be required before a definitive solution can be offered. However, in general, ab etching revisions require either further VASER liposuction and/or release of scars. More extreme cases of ab etching revision would require an abdominoplasty. I do not think you need an abdominoplasty. In my opinion, I think you just need revision of your ab etching with VASER. Most plastic surgeons wait at least six months or more after your initial procedure VASER liposuction procedure before considering a revision. If you have thick, scarred areas, you may be a candidate for Kenalog or steroid injected into these areas. I hope I have answered your question regarding how do you fix uneven skin after ab etching three months ago in Columbia. Good luck. Sincerely, Dr. Katzen

Hello 1confuseddollSorry about this, i advice you visit or contact your surgeon about all post-op concerns.

Hello,I agree with your concern. I would recommend to do what can at 3 months to optimize your result.  See your surgeon for recommendations, as well as consider regular massage to the areas of persistent swelling, compression, low/no salt diet.  With the possibility of having a secondary/corrective procedure at 1 year once all swelling diminishes and tissue softening occurs.Best wishes,Dr. Sergio Maggidrmaggi.com
