12 weeks post op J-Plasma by Renuvion, now have these lumpy areas after. Any thoughts on what happened and how I can fix it?

Question

I had j-plasma by Renuvion done on my abdomen 12 weeks ago. I have had tremendous improvement. However. I have these lumpy areas (no fat was removed) they sort of come and go. And then also an area with slight discoloration. Any thoughts on what happened and how I can fix it?? Going on a vacation soon and feeling uncomfortable in my bikini. Any suggestions or advice would be appreciated. *note: I had a hematoma above my belly button there

Andrew Kornstein, MD, FACS · Answer

You said it, it was the hematoma.  Blood is very inflammatory and can create adhesions and scarring. My suggestion is time, deep massage and ultrasound therapy(like a physical therapist).It will get better with time, do not(in my opinion) have anyone re-operate on that area.Once the area is soft and flexible, try Profound RFGood luck

Lawrence Janowski, MD · Answer

The lumps appear to be related to bunching of some loose skin that has tightened as a result of the J plasma.  One could try a surface radiofrequency device such as Velashape, for smoothing.  Lasers may be able to help as well.  The areas may continue to improve naturally with time as well.
