Lipo 360 & BBL in 2023 January - how can I get rid of back and side lumps? (Photos)

Question

2 years post op back and side lumps Hello! I got a lipo 360 and bbl in 2023 January. Almost two years post op I did many massages the first 6 months. I have basically hard ball around two or three on my waist area on the left side. On my back it’s very tight at the bottom and flat and drastically changes to basically a lump or like it’s the fluid just hardened into one big lump. Not sure. Massages didn’t do much for that area. I also have a lot of loose thick skin from mid back and up.

Dear Jelissax,

I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what is wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment or ask for a second opinion. Only after a thorough examination, you can get proper recommendations and advice.

Hello
If the corset is not tight enough or not used properly after high-volume liposuction, seroma can form. These seromas can gradually turn into a fibrous formation over time. It is possible to easily detect what the problem is with an ultrasound.

Your post to photos are mostly outdoors with clothing, barely showing the deformities. Repost nude photos, front backsides or do a virtual consultation. Most likely you would need revision using ultrasound guided removal of the lumps, whether using Lipo technique or excision technique, liposuction of the back areas for donor fat and re-insertion into the tight skin areas in the lower back areas. Again, best of virtual concert with fee from $8000-$12,000.

Massage cannot change Liposuction results.
The results from this procedure is purely dependent on the patient’s candidacy for surgery and how the procedure is performed guided
Postoperative care does not change the outcome.
To make an assessment, you need an in person consultation and should come prepared with a complete set of proper before and after pictures.
 if you don’t have before and after pictures, then ask your surgeon to forward the pictures they took.
Your surgeon is also the correct person to follow up with regarding your concerns about the outcome.
It looks like you have some skin laxity on your back and that may be contributing, though we really can’t make a quality assessment with limited information.
 Either follow up with your provider or schedule an in person opinion consultation with other plastic surgeons in your community.
Best,
Mats Hagstrom MD
