I'm not sure what would be the best thing I could do to address the loose skin/cellulite left by liposuction and renuvion. I'm worried that even a thigh lift wouldn't address the front of the thigh above the knees and I don't scar well so I wold prefer to not have a long scar if possible.
Answer: MicroLipo under local fixes most lipo problems. Liposuction with the micro canulas under local and with the bodytite/morpheus done at the same time makes such a great improvement in cellulite and uneven areas. Under local you can stand the patient up during the procedure and fine tune the results so you don't get those irregularities. Also the inner, outer and front thigh as well as the knees should all be done together for best results. General anesthesia and Renuvion are common causes for irregularities but are done by plastic surgeons for simplicity and quickness ( not for good results).

Answer: Morpheus8 helps reduce appearance of cellulite and tighten the loose skin left behind from liposuction. 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. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Realself100 Surgeon

Answer: Cellulite You my consider Aveli to improve cellulite but not the skin laxity. For that you can consider a thigh lift or potentially BodyTite. See a board certified plastic surgeon for an evaluation to learn more about your options.

Answer: Liposuction loose skin Dear Loose, There are risks to everything we do in plastic surgery. One of those risks for liposuction is the development of loose skin. Several technologies have been promoted as the best thing since sliced bread, and sometimes they actually work...but sometimes they do not. In all fairness to Renuvion, we do not have preoperative photos, measurements, etc. to more objectively evaluate your results. A follow up discussion with your plastic surgeon is in order. Good luck!
