I had power assisted lipo of the abdomen and flanks 25 days ago. This is how my abdomen looks right now. It’s hard in some areas and soft in others. Some areas look uneven. I had closed incisions. I’m depressed, I was 130lbs, 5’5, no children, 24 yo before surgery and expected a better result since I wasn’t too fat to begin with. Now I feel deformed. Will the bumps and harness improve or what can I do to make it better? Should I consider a revision?

Thank you for your question! Yes, it is possible to tone your abdominal muscles post liposuction. Liposuction does not affect your muscles at all, it only removes the subcutaneous fat above them. I hope this helps!
Thank you for asking about liposuction and BBL recovery.Since your surgeon gave her/his approval already, you can resume normal activity.Fat survival probably occurs in the first week of surgery, so the trend is towards shorter times of restricted activity. Hope this helps. Best wishes....
