I had a full trunk smart lipo 2 years ago. It has left what feels like a ledge of fat over my rib cage in the front under my breasts. I can literally feel with my fingers where the lipo line stops. Is it possible to have a revision for this shelf of fat over the rib cage? Can you even lipo over the rib cage under the breast? I cannot find Information anywhere on the web. Also, I lost 30lbs of additional weight since then, so this fat is for sure not going anywhere. Thank you in advance

Answer: Liposuction - Answer from a Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon Dr. Som Hi!Thanks for the question!You can absolutely receive a liposuction around the Rib Cage.Looking at just the photos and with my observation it seems like you should be a good candidate for liposuction. Make a appointment with a plastic surgery center and get a full exam and explain your past procedures before continuing. That is very important for the surgeon to know, to see what revision your performing. We as surgeons often divide the body into the upper and lower regions. The upper region is the area you are concerned with and it can hold alot of layers of fat that can be removed.
