Hi there, I'm VERY bummed out about my agreement to get vaser lipo. Never even considered getting ANY kind of lipo on UPPER abdomen. I had a defined "4-pack" of abs ever since I was little. The ONLY area my body would store fat was my LOWER abdomen, so I wanted to get lipo only in that area. However, my surgeon shared his vision. In addition to taking out fat from lower area, he wanted to make my upper abs "much more defined," and I thought, why not? Instead, I never saw my abs again. thoughts?
Answer: I always recommend staying away from VASER lipo anyway but something doesn't seem right here. Something is not right here in the photos. Please send correct before photos. Anyway, i never recommend vaser nor Renuvion nor Smart lipo anyway since too many complications.

Answer: AB SCULPTRING VASER gone wrong, can this be fixed? I dont see why this cant be fixed although I also feel you may have been in better "shape" then too and possibly need more muscular toning and hormonal optimization. all my clients do trusculpt FLEX post treatment to help build the ab muscles. it looks like he removed all the tendindous insertions and decreased you baseline fat over your abs so this will be challenging to repair, you will liekly need 1) surgical revision2) fat grafting to the abs3) long term trusculpt FLEX4) bellafill/renuva injections to the abs please see an expert for this. Its not easy to repair if anyone can do it at all. I do this multiple times a week over 60% of my cases are now revisions. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Are the results of bad liposuction reversible? Hello,There are a few issues that require clarification prior to offering you accurate advice. The first inquiry would be how far out are you from the surgery? Is there still swelling that hasn't resolved? What was your "before" shape? Are the before images you have posted from several years ago? Was fat grafting undertaken to enhance the muscle shape?In any case, liposuction and body contouring require vision, skill and experience. Once you have fully healed the areas of concern can be reevaluated for fine tuning. All surgery carries some risk and so it's best to weigh the pros and cons of any treatment and the likelihood of achieving realistic improvements or set backs before proceeding.Warm regards,Dr. Pedy Ganchi Village Plastic Surgery

Answer: Lipo revision There are many possible reasons as to why you may lost ab definition after Vaser. This can include scarring, weight gain or weight loss, changes in muscle tone, contour irregularities from liposuction, or changes to the natural elasticity of your skin. Your before photos also appear to be professionally taken compared to your after selfies which may make the difference even more dramatic. It is best to have an in-office evaluation to determine what options can improve your situation. It may not be possible to make you look like exactly like your before photos however you may have at least some modest improvements. Hope this helps!Johnson C. Lee, MD
