Liposuction lumps - Is it safe to look for a tummy tuck revision surgeon? (photos)

Jessgirl78May 20, 2020
Two years ago I had a tummy tuck and was left with extra skin and fat. The doctor that I was seeing at the time did liposuction at 6mos po to try and correct it. The liposuction came out uneven so a month later we liposuction that spit again. I am still uneven and I have a hard painful lump in that area. The skin is loose and you can tell the skin is "thin in that spot" all the lipo made my skin loose and yucky. Would it be safe to start looking for a new doctor to do a tummy tuck revision ?

Yes, if properly planned and designed if you want that it can be done with the same low, hidden bikini incision. Sometimes liposuction is done in combination to achieve this result too.
