Hello Doctors , I had traditional liposuction 6 years ago . I had a 2nd round of traditional Lipo 4 years ago . After my 2nd round my surgeon told me no more Lipo because he struggled with all the scar tissue. I would like more lipo since the 2nd round didn't make no difference at all . Is it true that someone can have too much scar tissue ? Are they any other alternatives or different type of Lipo?

Answer: Liposuction candidate Dear sablejones,it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.Daniel Barrett, MD Certified, American Board of Plastic Surgery Member, American Society of Plastic Surgery Member, American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery

Answer: Different surgeons are skilled and comfortable with different tools Hello sablejones, over time depending on the depth of suction, type of suction your body will truly form scar tissue as it heals the trauma inflicted by the suction cannula. There are different types of liposuction contraptions on the market, people that use VASER or smartlipo will admit it is the best for scar tissue and redo suction. The truth is as you gain more weight you will start to develop areas of fat in between the scars, the heat energy helps break the scars and the suction apparatus will suck the amount of fatty tissue to even things out. I would find a surgeon who is expert at vaser in your area and consult him or her about your options. all liposuction modalities carry a risk of contour irregularities, deformities and seromas. hope this brief explanation helped answer your question better.
