Will Venus Legacy fix botched abdomen lipo from years ago?

Question

I had lipo 2 times. When I was 21 and again at 26 and am now 29 (no kids no weight gain good skin texture). The reason I had it twice was because it was lumpy the first time with many indentations. The 2nd go made it worse. Still no abs, just smaller, lumpy waist. Can 6 treatments of Venus fix the lumps and show some ab muscle definition? Or do I go for a 3rd lipo?

HI SK,If you were our patient, we would recommend 6 to 8 treatments of Venus Freeze.  We have seen very nice responses in cases such as yours in helping to smooth out unevenness after abdominal liposuction.  Good luck and be well.Dr. P

While I think the Venus could help with the lumpiness of your liposuction results, I am not sure that the treatments with the RF will eliminate the problem completely. Some of the lumpiness may remain.
I recommend trying it, as it is less invasive than a third liposuction but you need to be realistic with  your expectations.

F. Victor Rueckl, MD (in memoriam) · Answer

Unfortunately many patients have lumpiness after lipo simply because fat doesn't remove evenly. Venus Legacy (which is Venus Freeze with the added benefit of a vacuum component) helps tremendously with this because it can heat the skin and help even out the lumpiness. Make sure you find a good office with a lot of experience to treat you. "This answer has been solicited without seeing this patient and
