Should I go for my second attempt at Vaser lipo with the same surgeon if there was no change the first time? (photos)

Hi ,
Thanks for your question and photos.
I would recommend to make an appointment with the surgeon to perform the procedure and discuss with concerns and possible options including possible second surgery.
According to the photos, you are good candidate for Vaser liposuction on flanks, lower back upper and lower abdomen ( 360 degree approach). flanks in order to improve your overall silhouette and body contour and give more athletic shape.
Vaser liposuction is a surgical procedure for fat removal and overall improvement of silhouette and body contour in the right candidates. This means that the fat removed from a specific part of the body will be collected in a canister/container outside of your body. In my clinical practice I am able to show the patient the fat removed.
It is very important also to understand that Vaser liposuction can only remove subcutaneous fat. Visceral fat is located inside the abdominal cavity – it cannot be suctioned out.
It is possible for fat to return after liposuction if you gain weight after liposuction. In general, the more weight gained after liposuction, the less their results will be.
This is why liposuction is not a weight-loss procedure.
Weight Loss through diet and exercise can reduce visceral fat safely and effectively.
Life style program ( e.g. healthy diet and exercise) and bespoke after care/follow-up plan are the very important in this surgical procedure to maintain the results achieved and potentially improve them.
It is important to have a face to face consultation with the surgeon to assess the localisation on the fat, your skin quality ( e.g. elasticity), muscle tone and medical history including previous pregnancies as following childbirth, the muscles of a woman’s stomach can become stretched and separated known as diastasis recti. In this case, liposuction can’t reduce the diastasis of the abdominal muscles and abdominoplasty would be a better indication.
Hope this helps,
All the best,
Dr Giuseppe Fiore

The prior to photos would be helpful. I am unable to see any scars on your skin (perhaps located under your clothes). Do you feel any firm areas on your abdomen? What is the opinion of your lymphatic massage specialist? During your follow up visits with your surgeon did (s)he state that you had achieved 100% recovery? Have you lost or gained weight since your procedure? Sorry I have more questions than answers.

For best results, I recommend a hi definition procedure like VASER liposuction, which can be performed at the same time as a tummy tuck, depending on skin laxity. 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
