Can bad lipo be corrected? Can I exercise and lose the fat that was not removed? (Photo)

Question

I got lipo a year ago and I was left with a horrible lumpy belly. From some research I have heard that the doctor just took out too much fat. If I woke out and focus on my belly area can I even out the lumpyness?

I would suggest our Hidef Liposuction Revision Protocol that includes VASER liposuction, lipocavitation, fat grafting with fibrous release, PRP, Exilis multiplane tissue tightening, and ThermiRF. Best, Dr. KaramanoukianLos Angeles

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

This won't improve with diet and exercise alone. For best results, I recommend a hi definition procedure like a VASER liposuction revision. I use VASER HI DEF with ThermRF 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

You are correct, the lumpy appearance of your abdomen is due to excessive liposuction.  it would be very difficult to improve the appearance with just diet and exercise. The appearance can be improved with SAFE liposuction. With this procedure, we essentially redistribute the fat evenly throughout your abdomen. #StayBeautiful @RealDrWorldWide

What happened is that your surgeon tried to perform high definition liposuction without VASER. What you need to realize is that VASER technology is critical to removing all of your fat and without contour irregularities. Please find an experienced VASER provider to show you how.
