I would suggest Sculptra injections, which can help rebuild thin areas. It will be a few sessions and build gradually. Find someone who does a lot of Sculptra, especially in scarred areas.
As the marketing teams have designed it, with the help of surgeon's who've purchased or invested in them, you've been duped into thinking that some device is going to give you superior results in liposuction, or perhaps skin tightening too. But it's never been about the machine, it's always been...
