Do I have nonsurgical options to fix bad stomach lipo? (Photos)

Hello,Thank you for your question and pictures. It is very hard to determine if CoolSculpting and Kybella can address all of your concerns. They should be able to improve the area however you will need to consult with a local provider in person to determine what the best course of action will be based on your expectations and desired results. Best of luck!

Correcting unevenness after liposuction can be very tricky- there is scar tissue left behind, and treatment usually requires a combination of adding fat in some areas (fat grafting), removing fat, and breaking up scar tissue.Although CoolSculpting is an amazing technique to remove fat, I would not recommend it to correct liposuction contour irregularities. 

Sorry to hear about your lipo experience. If you are looking for non-surgical options then CoolSculpting, EMSculpt, Kybella, or Thermi based treatments may provide some improvement. Make sure you see an experienced physician injector for an in-person consultation and evaluation. Best wishes.

To improve your final results, I recommend adding vanquish for further fat removal, exilis/venus legacy for skin tightening, cellutone/z wave to make the skin smooth, remove scar tissue, and improve the skin’s appearance. However you may need a revision for best outcomes. For best results, I recommend a hi definition procedure like VASER liposuction. I use VASER HI DEF with ThermiRF/J Plasma/Renuvion/InMode BodyTite and fat grafting to get the most fat removal, skin tightening, contour and definition. This combination will give you the most toned result. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a hi definition physique expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Hello, that is a great question! There are many options to help you correct and improve your abdomen. To get a better understanding of your options, I suggest scheduling a consultation with a qualified plastic surgeon. They will be able to better assess your concerns and create a treatment plan that achieves your ideal results. Prices will vary based on the extent of correction and if you go with an option like CoolSculpting, there will not be a recovery period. It's hard to tell but CoolSculpting could likely reduce the irregular fat and improve the tone of your stomach.

Thank you for your question! It is not uncommon to see a little residual fullness around the belly button. Sometimes it is just fat, sometimes above the bellybutton it can be some skin redundancy. It’s best to have an exam and I do think either Coolsculpting or Kybella are good options. Even a little touch up liposuction is easy to do in the office under local. Best of luck!

Thank you for the question, Pink Sparkly Penguin (I had to put that in, it's fantastic!). Your liposuction results are unquestionably subpar & I am so sorry that this has happened to you. Given that, I would still recommend talking to your original surgeon about re-treatment free of charge. However, if you just want to wash your hands of the experience, Coolsculpting would definitely give you the results you want WITHOUT having to undergo surgery again. Coolsculpting is still the #1 FDA approved, non-surgical, non-invasive fat reduction procedure in the U.S. that also has NO downtime. I would recommend finding a Coolsculpting certified practice in your area that offers free consultations. Based on your pictures, you will want your upper & lower abdomen treated aggressively at a first session & then again in a second session 30-60 days later. This is called Treatment to Transformation and provides the best results overall. Good luck PSP! If you have any further questions, please feel free to send me an inquiry.

Thank you for your question.  Asymmetry, or lumpy/bumpy, after liposuction is normal.  That being said, if you are unhappy with your results, I would recommend discussing with your surgeon or seeking a second opinion. Some situations may be amenable to non invasive correction where others may require touch up liposuction to smooth those areas out.  In the end, it is usually possible to have results that make you happy.
