Unhappy with the fullness of sides/flank area 7 months post-op tummy tuck, recommendations to fix? (Photos)

Thank you for your question and photos. Preoperative photos would've been helpful. Based on these photos, you had a standard 2D tummy tuck with some liposuction done on the flanks only in the supine position. This is considered a good result by most surgeons. To get an hourglass figure and give you the smallest waist, you would've needed liposuction 360 degrees with your TT and possibly fat transfer to the buttocks/hips. This should have been discussed with you preoperatively, to educate you about the limitations of the surgery you signed up for. Often people think they can get away with less surgery (cost, recovery time, etc.) and still obtain the results they imagined. Not going to happen.
As a Total Definer plastic surgeon, if you were my patient, going forward I would do VASER Hi Def Lipo 360 degrees and fat transfer to the buttocks/hips to create a feminine hourglass figure. See a board certified plastic surgeon experienced in advanced body sculpting techniques for an in person consultation/evaluation. Good luck.

Thank you for your inquiry! Keep an open communication with your provider regarding your concerns. We would also be available to see you in person and discuss your revision options. Schedule a consultation with a Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon to help you reach your goals!

An examination can tell if you have some residual fat. If you do, liposuction of that area can be done. this could be done in the office under local or at a facility that does general anesthesia.
