Liposuction scars are noticeable. How can I get rid of them? I have about 12. Help?

Asked By:veelove in Irvine, CA

I had a procedure done last year around December. I had liposuction on my abdomen, flanks. I also had a brazillian butt lift. I have scars up to this date that are noticeable. I had around 12 incisions. On my sides on my buttocks and other areas of my body where lipo was performed. Was it necessary for the Dr. To do so many incisions? How can I get rid of them now? They look brown and I'm light skinned. I'm starting to think that all these incisions weren't necessary..
