I had a breast reduction and lift exactly one year ago along with lipo of flanks hips and abdomen. My lower abdomen was the area in need of lipo along with my rear flanks and hips . My question is why is my upper abdomen now much larger than it was prior to surgery? It seems to grow weekly.

Answer: Liposuction Perhaps it's becuaae that area wasn't operated on and now it is more noticeable. You can try CooSculpting to decrease the fullness in the area without surgery

Answer: There are several possibilities The first thing to check is your weight. If you gain weight it has to go someplace. You now have fewer fat cells in the treated areas so they won't get larger as much as non treated areas. Another possibility after a breast reduction is that your seeing your upper abdomen for the first time in a while.Lastly it may be that the upper abdomen is not larger, but everything around it is smaller.Regardless it looks like you need to have some more suctioning of the upper abdomen.Good luck,Dr. T
