I had a revision liposuction on my stomach to smooth some ridges I had after my first surgery. The revision helped some but my stomach is still uneven and lumpy. There is also a distinctive ridge above my belly button where I’m guessing the surgeon stopped removing fat. This is upsetting since I’ve now had two surgeries and am still very self conscience of the results. It’s been 3 months and no change since 1st month. I don’t want another surgery are there technologies that could help?

Our Hidef Liposuction protocol addresses skin tightness and laxity, contour irregularities, and body proportions to reestablish harmony in the body. Options include fat cavitation, fibrous release, RF multiplane tissue tightening, fat grafting, fat matrix, liposculpture, and liposuction....
If your results are terrible then you should stay clear of having the same provider do any revision work.
If you're simply liking the results and then having the same provider do you revision might make more sense.
If the results are just off, uneven or with bad contour irregularities you should...

For best results, I recommend VASER liposuction. Traditional liposuction is very limited and only removes partial amounts of fat. VASER improves irregularities and removes fat. Consult with a VASER specialist to address all your questions and concerns.
