Hello, I had liposuction done on my stomach in 2020 and since I’ve lost more weight. I now have these really ugly bumps in the middle of my stomach they’re more prevalent in certain lightings but they really bother me. The skin there feels loose and when I pull it up they disappear. How can I make this look better or get rid of them? I have good elasticity in my skin I’m 30s, very active, female.
Answer: An alternative treatment can be to do morpheus8 to target some unwanted fat and help stomach look smoother. Morpheus 8 is a non-invasive skin and soft tissue tightening treatment that is consistently amazing in our patients. We use the Morpheus to exact fractional induced RF into the skin or tissue in order to tighten collagen and stimulate contraction of the tissue. For acne scars, it is quite useful to build collagen in patients who have atrophic scars but is not very productive for ice-pick scars which require TCA Cross. For tissue tightening, Morpheus is ideal for the face and neck and we often combine it with CO2 laser or Ultherapy to further enhance results. Chemical peels and skin resurfacing should be done at least 5 to 7 days after, but can be performed earlier, depending on treatment severity. Avoid exfoliating skin treatments before Morpheus and expect a period of 2-4 weeks for skin contraction to set in.

Answer: Post Liposuction Irregularities Looking at photos submitted by Realself users is a far cry from an in person physical examination. Your photos show residual fatty stores and irregularities that suggest relative skin excess, loss of skin support, and likely some post surgical scarring. The reality is that to obtain an improvement you will need an abdominoplasty and more liposuction. I'm sure this comes as a surprise, but it is unfortunately very likely. Go to a few surgeons with good reputations for being honest and excellent in their craft.

Answer: 30s, female & bumps on stomach still 3 years after lipo, how to make them look better? Thank you for your question and photos. Based on these limited view photos, you did have fat reduction liposuction of a limited area. Your frontal photos shows excess fat on your waist/hips and upper/lower abdomen with significant excess fat and liposuction irregularities in the horizontal direction. To get the best athletic and youthful abdomen, the surgeon has to approach the torso in 3D and reveal the underlying muscles (partially, especially in females). As a Total Definer surgeon, I use the VASER Hi Def Lipo 360 degrees technique for best hourglass figure and maximum skin tightening. This is done as an outpatient surgery under deep intravenous sedation anesthesia. You cannot expect significant skin tightening from limited liposuction areas, discontinuous areas or liposuction under local anesthesia only.

Answer: Micro lipo under local with bodytite and Morpheus can improve most irregularities quite easily. Liposuction under local where the patients are stood up during the procedure can really prevent irregularities and help tighten up the skin a lot by adding bodytite and morpheus at the same time. From the photos, you still need more lipo done.

Answer: Abdominal bumps Your abdominal skin lacks support and is loose. An examination if required to be sure, but from your description of the bumps going away with pulling on your skin I think the only way to remove them is to remove the excess skin. That would mean an abdominoplasty, Good luck.
