Will Vaser Lipo remove fibrosis from previous liposuction?

Hello Abetterme_17,
Thanks for your questions! Persistent cases of irregularities due to excessive fibrosis may require a combination of touch-up liposuction along with Autologous Fat Transfer (AFT) to be adequately corrected. The surgeon can suction raised areas around the depression and fill in the depression with autologous fat grafts (from patient’s own body) to achieve the best possible, smooth contours. If the skin is loose then it can be surgically removed by excision. Moreover, 4D VASER Liposuction may be useful treatment for cellulite and may cause less contour irregularities. Although irregularities of the skin are possible following liposuction, this side effect is diminished by the minimally-invasive 4D VASER Liposuction using micro-cannulas (less than 4 mm in outside diameter) and the criss-cross technique of liposuction. Using micro-cannulas for liposuction can require a little more time than using larger cannulas, but the former ones permit both the removal of more fat and smoother results. Furthermore, VASER Liposuction is clinically proven (based on randomized clinical studies) to cause 53% skin retraction relative to other standard liposuction methods, which in turn reduces the risk of occasional irregularities of the skin. Liposuction patients can also actively contribute in preventing contour irregularities by following their surgeons’ post-operative protocols. In this respect, I usually recommend them wearing specialized compression garments around the clock, starting immediately after surgery, during six months, to reduce swelling and help their skin contract smoothly to their new body’s contours. Since ill-fitting garments can lead to contour irregularities, I advise my patients about the correct method of using them, to limit folds and creases in the garments, and regularly check if they are worn properly. Additionally, at least ten lymphatic drainage massage sessions are required, starting 24 hours after the procedure, to eliminate excess lymph fluid, alleviate swelling and discomfort, and also prevent complications such as seromas (fluid collection) and contour irregularities (indentations, and/or fibrosis). In my experience, manual lymphatic massages by their own have proven successful, in the majority of cases, in achieving uniform removal of swelling and ensuring smooth contours. Best regards!

Yes, for best results improving fibrosis, I recommend a hi definition procedure like VASER liposuction. I use VASER HI DEF with ThermiRF and fat grafting to get the most fat removal, skin tightening, contour and definition. This combination will give you the most toned result. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a hi definition physique expert. Best, Dr. Emer

It would be best to have a board certified surgeon examine you in person to assess your 'lumpy look and feel.'  The correction of your condition may entail further touch up liposuction, or it may involve an excisional procedure.VASER liposuction may help in breaking through fibrous areas, but the more important issue is an accurate assessment of your current situation.

In my opinion Vaser lipo causes the majority of lipo fibrosis I see and try to correct. Only in person examination would allow a determination of any surgical or non surgical options available to try to improve the fibrosis.. 

Vaser liposuction will definitively remove all residual fat and any scar tissue to provide you a smooth and aesthetically beautiful results.
