I am 2 years 6 months post 3D lipo and have lumps. I’ve had a 3D Lipo on my stomach 2 and a half years ago and I still have long horizontal lump on my upper stomach. After the surgery the garment was left too low and it caused a painful lump. I was told to massage it and also do the course of treatments when they massage the skin with a special machine (can’t remember what it called). I did all that and it has not removed it. The dr only did the Lipo on my lower part of the stomach and when I put on weight you can clearly see the difference between the treated area and the one that’s not. There is a horizontal line that splits my belly and the mass sometimes pulls on the inside like a scar tissue would. Can this be treated by TriLipo Radiofrequency (RF) and TriLipo Dynamic Muscle Activation (DMA) or does it have to be corrected surgically?
