So I went to my doctor a couple days ago for a follow up after my 5 months of a BBL. I love my butt, he did an amazing job. The only issue is my abdomen, I had fat taken out but I don't think my stomach is as good as I would like... He recommend for me to get smart lipo for a better result, what do you think? How long will it take to see results from smart lipo?

Answer: Revision Liposuction Revision liposuction, SmartLipo or traditional, are reasonable options for treating residual subcutaneous fat. However, while treating an area which has already been treated is always an option, repeat liposuction has its limitations. Scar tissue from the initial procedure can limit yield/results and thus expectations should be adjusted accordingly.Any repeat procedures should be delayed at least 6-12 months to allow for adequate healing. Additionally, prior to any revision planning, your abdomen should be reassessed to determine whether repeat SAL will be of any utility. Occasionally, post liposuction, the issue is no longer fat but rather skin excess.As always, discuss your concerns with a board certified plastic surgeon.

Answer: Smart lipo May be an option after prior liposuction but scar tissue may limit results and expectations. Vaser ultra doin liposuction and/or Thermi Tight radio frequency may be options. An exam and consultation with a plastic surgeon who performs these procedures is recommended.
