Can my 'botched' calf/ankle lipo be fixed?

LKS15
I had lipo of my calves/ankles 2 years ago. I am happy to not have the thicker lower legs but very unhappy and self conscious of the contour irregularities. Front of my legs are OK but it is the back and when I lift my heels where I see unevenness, indentations, discoloration. I don't know if anything can be done. I am sad and still too self conscious to wear skirts. My plastic surgeon told me he did lots of this procedures and I trusted that but do not see expertise. Can this be improved on?
