Vaser Lipo 6 months post - no difference? Should I be concerned? (Photo)

Sorry for your unsatisfactory results. But posting photos in clothing does not help determine exactly what happened. Best to virtual consult and expect revision liposurgery in the $10,000+ ranges.

Liposuction results are final at three months and will not change my waiting further.
Likewise massage or any other postoperative therapy has no impact on the final results.
The outcome of liposuction results is a direct reflection of the patient’s individual candidacy for the procedure combined with the skill and experience of the surgeon.
Geographic location of surgeons has no impact on skill or experience.
The amount of money charged for a procedure is also unrelated to skill or experience though the most talented exergents typically don’t give bargain basement prices.
To make an assessment on the outcome of an operation we need to see proper before and after pictures. If you don’t have before and after pictures then ask your provider to forward the ones they took.
If you’re unhappy with your results you should follow up with your provider.
There is no need to wait any further and telling you you need to wait is simply the provider kicking the can down the road hoping that you won’t come back.
In the end your surgeon is responsible for the outcome of the procedure and you are responsible for choosing that provider.
If you want a proper second opinion consultation then you should schedule those as in person consultations. For a second opinion consultations patients should come prepared by bringing copies of the operative report and all before and after pictures.
Personally I’m not a big fan of high definition liposuction but it seems quite popular. i’ve been a board-certified plastic surgeon for 25 years. The last 10 years I’ve been devoted exclusively to doing only liposuction and fat transfer procedures. today’s I’ve done over 8000 liposuction procedures.
Delivering consistent quality liposuction results is more difficult than most patients and plastic surgeons believe. define the most talented and experience provider as suggest patients have multiple in person consultations at which time you should ask the provider to show their entire collection of before and after pictures. Simply saying a handful of pre-selected sample pictures is insufficient to get a clear understanding of what average results look like in the hands of each provider. An experienced provider should have no difficulty showing you a minimum of 50 sets of before and after pictures. ask providers to show as many pictures as possible of patients with similar body characteristics to your own so you’ll know with good certainty what your results will look like.
An experienced and talented provider will be able to deliver consistent quality results based on each unique patient’s candidacy for the procedure.
Some patients are not good candidates for Liposuction and regardless who does the procedure they will not have quality results. Other patients are exceptional candidate but without choosing the correct provider results may not turn out the way they had hoped for and can turn out disfiguring if done by someone grossly lacking skill and experience.
Finding the most talented and experienced provider requires having multiple in person consultations with a proper vetting of each provider.
I also recommend patient read all the reviews on the various position review website avoiding providers for any significant number of justified negative reviews. The absence of justified negative reviews is more important and more telling than having an abundance of positive reviews.
