Asked By:mesdasilva123 in san francisco

I had tummy tuck and liposuction two years ago on 2011. Everything looked great in the beginning, but I noticed hard knots in the bottom of my back. After time, I gained some weight and I now notice skin "rippling" all over my stomach, back, and sides. I'm so sad about this!! I have never been overweight and didnt have much fat to begin with, but I now feel my appearance is worse than before! Is there anything that can be done to erase these marks??
