Can liposuction cannula scar tissue be removed or broken up?

May 13, 2018
Asked By:chicago20200 in Chicago, IL

I had lipo on my stomach and flanks over a year ago and now when i bend to my sides when i stretch, it feels tight and these long line cannula scar appears. When I stand normally you cant see them, but if i lift the skin, there are so many. I'm trying to lose weight and i'm worried when i lose weight, they are going to be very visible. Most of all, they are painful and i want to move my body without pain. Is there a way to fix these?
