Answer: Abdominoplasty I am sorry that you are disappointed with your results but from the limited photo you provided, the problem is excess skin. A compression garment is not going to resolve that issue. The only treatment for that much excess skin is an abdominoplasty. I occasionally do liposuction on someone who has excess skin but we all understand that we are not going to decrease the skin with the liposuction and that the ideal procedure would be an abdominoplasty. An abdominoplasty is a much larger procedure than liposuction with the requirement for more time off work and a longer time healing. Some patients choose to compromise and accept the improvement in contour with liposuction alone while accepting that the excess skin will remain.You are coming to a point where you will need to decide your goals. If you want the best result, consider an abdominoplasty. Be sure to see a board certified plastic surgeon to accomplish these goals.

Answer: Pooch 3 months out it seems like you have some excess skin that may have been there before surgery and was certainly exacerbated by liposuction. It is difficult to make definitive recommendations based on a photo but you will likely need the skin cut out to have the result you are looking for. Hope this helps.

Answer: Redundant skin can be a sequelae of liposuction. The photograph does not provide a lot of information but there appears to be a surplus of skin creating the abdominal wall prominence. If this is the case then liposuction by itself is not the clinical solution. However at three months there still is swelling so remain patient.

Answer: Puffy after liposuction If significant swelling is being create by a compression garment not fitting in the right location, it would be best to try a different compression garment that addresses this area. Compression garments if worn incorrectly for a long period of time could create creasing that can become permanent. Make sure to have a follow up with your physician regularly to track results and address any concerns about swelling or compression garments.
