What can I do to get rid of this back roll ( worse on right side in picture) is it sagging skin or fat? If I lift my arms above my head it goes away or if I tense my back muscles it looks better. Please help.

If your question is whether or not fat cells will regenerate in an area after liposuction I'm not sure the answer is known. Most of us think that the number of fat cells carried into adult life is finite. However patients with appreciable weight gain may not follow this pattern.
