Hard scar tissue on lower abdomen after tummy tuck - could liposuction fix it?

December 1, 2022
Asked By:cruisegirl223 in Jackson Township, New Jersey

I had liposuction 3 times in the course of my life. I had a tummy tuck in 2014 and I think I had developed scar tissue on the lower abdomen. It's this hard ball of I don't know what. All I know is it's not flat. I feel disfigured and ugly. I never had children so I think getting a TT was extreme. I am 5'1 about 135. But now the skin looks awful and I have this hard ball and I just wanted to know if lipo could fix it or if I have to live this way.
