I had tumescent lipo on my thighs--inner, outer, gluteal fold. It's 3 months after and I have some sort of "double butt-cheek" on my left buttock. (in pics it appears to be the right side, the mirror reverses the image). The doctor said that there was just something wrong with my butt. However, I looked it up online and it specifically says this is a common problem if you remove too much fat from the upper thigh. Can it be corrected? I am so sad about this.

Liposuction can be done easily for your abdomen after an appy but you should probably wait at least 6 months for the scar to mature since it will most likely need to be undermined to get rid of the puckering which is usually seen with appy scars. Sincerely,
