I am 7 weeks post op lipo of my stomach and I have fat pockets. Can I get lazer lipo or fat freezing treatments??
Answer: How long after lipo can I get laser or fat freezing treatments? Thank you for your question and photo. You do have irregular liposuction and even though you are swollen at this stage, the irregularity will stay. I would recommend revision liposuction using the VASER Hi Def Lipo technique to give you a more youthful and athletic abdomen. I don't believe that any machine treatment like freezing or burning the fat is as good as a well done liposuction done by an expert body contouring surgeon.Allow 4-6 months to heal, then seek a second opinion with a board certified plastic surgeon experienced in advanced body sculpting techniques for an in person consultation/evaluation. Good luck.

Answer: VASER HI DEF 4D LIPO / 360 Degree Sculpture / Body Contouring / HD Sculpting With Fat Transfer and Tummy Tuck / Mommy Makeover The reason you have apoor result from liposuction alone is bescause you needed your loose skin treated at the same time with skin removal. The only way to get a flat improvement is skin removal/tummy tuck along with revision liposuction. You can do RF treatments, massage and waist trainer in the meantime to help improve your current outcome but this will not make you flat -- even if you added coolsculpting or vanquish. Please see an expert next time. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Not Ready for Lipo Revision Yet! I understand your concern but it is still too early to consider revision. It takes at least 4-6 months for all swelling to resolve and skin to contract. Don’t go rushing off to do revisions that you may not need. Talk to your board certified Plastic Surgeon.

Answer: Uneven after liposuction Dear Boujiprincess,I would have to examine you but it appears that this is a contour irregularity after liposuction. This happens often when areas the undergo liposuction are not feathered appropriately. The good news is that it can be fixed and I have done so with good results before. The revision can often be done under local as well. Daniel Barrett, MD, MHA, MS Certified, American Board of Plastic Surgery Member, Am. Society of Plastic Surgery

Answer: Liposuction and final results You must wait until liposuction results are final before seeking out additional treatments or touch ups. A good 3 months is the first point that any assessment should be made, mostly due to swelling. 4-5 months is when all swelling is gone. Follow your surgeon's instructions during this recovery period and await final results.
