Upper Arm Liposuction Revision - Is it Cannula Marks or Adhesions / Tethering?

This requires an in-person evaluation. I suggest consulting with your physician to discuss the best next steps. Best, Dr, Emer

Dear spearson4411,
I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what went wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment or ask for a second opinion. Only after a thorough examination, you can get proper recommendations and advice.

Your results are a direct reflection of how the procedure was performed.

That was removed in an uneven manner possibly with the cannula going to close to the skin or potentially using an overly aggressive cannula.

The more fat that’s removed the more likely you are to develop contour irregularities. This is especially true when working with providers who like the skill and experience to deliver consistent high-quality results.

Revision work is more difficult than primary Liposuction so keep that in mind when just signing up for more of the same.

Your results are related to your fat distribution and this is not going to be changed by having myofascial release.

Cautious fat transfer or revision Liposuction or a combination of both are viable treatment options to improve the contour.

Provider selection is paramount in minimizing the chance of having this become worse.

Best,

Mats Hagstrom MD
