What can I do about this large dent on my stomach after liposuction? Is Renuva or Sculptra an option? (photos)

Question

I'm a model with very little body fat who wanted fat transfer to my face and the surgeon assured me adamantly that harvesting fat in my lower abdomen would not leave me with any dents or track marks about which I had expressed concern before the surgery. A few weeks after surgery in spring 2020 I noticed a few indented areas and all have mostly healed except for this very large one. Would Renuva or Sculptra help? Do I possibly have an adhesion between my skin & fascia or muscle to complicate it?

Ellen Marmur, MD · Answer

Renuva is the perfect option for correcting indentations caused by liposuction.   Indentation corrections was one of the very first uses of Renuva.  Since then, dermatologists have also been using it to replenish age-related volume loss in the face, hands and other body areas. Renuva is especially great for people who do not have enough body fat for fat transfers.  Renuva is an off-the-shelf treatment treatment (no liposuction or fat transfer required) and is a great way of avoiding further surgery or downtime. Plus it achieves fantastic, natural-looking results!

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

Correcting and smoothing over-liposuctioned areas of the body was one of the first and most popular uses for Renuva. I've achieved great results for my patients that needed small volume indentation corrections.
 
 For your particular situation, and to help determine if Renuva is the best option for you, it's bese to consult with an elite Renuva medical aesthetic injector. You can DM @MyRenuva to find one near you.

Most likely the best option is revision Liposuction but someone who is very talented at liposuction.Fat transfer or a combination of both are also options.I would not recommend cadaver fat substitutes or fillers.By far the biggest and most important variable is finding the most talented plastic surgeon to help you with this.

Thank you for the question and photo photos but an examination is really needed.  So go on some complimentary consultations with experts and compare recommendations after a full examination and discussion of desired results
