Too much was taken via liposuction in a V shape above my hipbones and up to my sides. It is a noticeable indentation on both sides of my stomach/sides. Can this be filled in with a fat graft?? If not, Any other suggestions??

Answer: Liposuction repair The best thing for you to do is consult in person with a board certified plastic surgeon to see what your options are. Fat transfer will likely be your best option. You need to seek a plastic surgeon with experience and expertise in fat transfer in areas other than just the face.

Answer: Reversal of liposuction Well first of all you appear to have a good contour & symmetry. Not knowing what your pre-op appearance or how far out from surgery, I will say that changes will continue to occur for 6-12 mos post-op. Fat-grafting is an option for contour irregularities, but survival of the fat is not consistent or reliable. Obviously you should discuss your concerns with your surgeon’s office, but I would be reluctant to rush back & likely create a problem where there is not currently... Best of luck & enjoy the results!
