I had 360 lipo done. I am 6 months post op. Does it look like I still have inflammation and or swelling? If so, do you think this is the cause of my wrinkled skin and bloated look? Any recommendations besides exercising and eating healthy. I am doing that already. I am concerned this is my final result or close to it. I opted out of a tummy tuck.
Answer: Do I still have swelling? I don't anticipate you are going to see much improvement at this stage. You need a tummy tuck to remove excess fat and skin as well as correct the abdominal wall laxity. That is what will give you the best improvement.

Answer: Do I still have inflammation/swelling at 6 months post-op? Hello @Vivid2861 Thank you for your question and showing your picture. The thing about your case is that you needed a tummy tuck as well. There is an excess of skin and the abdomen wall needs tightening that's why the results are not satisfactory to you. Liposuction alone won't get rid of loose skin in the abdominal area or tightening the muscles. A tummy tuck is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin and fat from the middle and lower abdomen and strengthens the abdominal muscles, in which there is abdominal lipolysis, abdominal diastasis repair, skin removal with umbilical reconstruction, and a liposuction is the extraction of fat from a particular area of the body, in this case the abdomen (abdominal lipolysis). On the other hand liposculture we take out fat from all parts of the body to make it more harmonious. Is important that you are clear with your specialist in the results that you seek. Best wishes!

Answer: Indentations, discoloration, Irregularities, Fibrosis, Inflammation after Liposuction this was poorly performed liposuction for which you were not a candidate. you needed a tummy tuck given the loose skin and stretch marks you had before your procedure. You will need a revision procedure to help improve this. I suggest you consult with an expert. A combination of skin removal, fat grafting, and liposuction with heating likely will need to be done. Best, Dr. Emer.
