Can I get Lipo again in same areas? (photos)

Yes you can get a more hi definition procedure and reshape the area again. I would suggest VASER hi def for a more contoured look.  Best, Dr. Emer.

If patients maintain their weight after liposuction fat should not recur in an area that's been previously treated. If there is surplus fat repeat liposuction can be perform. It's a bit more difficult because of scar tissue.

Liposuction can safely be done in the same area. If the first result was smooth, then any repeat liposuction should also be smooth. Sometimes the expectations have to be changed, as there is more scar tissue which may prevent removal of the same amount of fat that was removed initially

Thank you for your question and photographs. You can perform liposuction again in those areas previously addressed, but it does tend to take a bit more work, and leaves patients with a bit more swelling, than the initial procedure.  Contour irregularities is a risk, but with careful planning and surgical technique you should obtain favorable results. 

You can absolutely do liposuction.  For secondary cases it is advisable to use an energy source such as laser or ultrasound assisted liposuction.

Hello ddfgybh. Thanks for your question. I believe you can have additional liposuction where you have gained weight. The scar tissue in those areas will make it more difficult to remove the excess fat and it could also increase the risks of lumpiness. I find that tumescent liposuction with "safe lipo" technique reduces lumpiness risks and is my preferred technique in addition to power-assisted liposuction for those especially scarred areas. Best, Dr. ALDO.

A general answer to your question as to whether lipo can be performed on areas that had been previously approached then answer is yes.  Whether repeat lipo in your particular case would be appropriate is a different matter.  Repeat lipo of your back may accentuate the folds that you see there.  Lipo on the flanks and abdomen would help.  Sometimes repeat lipo can not only help reduce any remaining fat volume but may also help smoothen the results from the first procedure.

Thank you for your question and photos.  Yes, you can do liposuction in an area you have already had liposuction to.  The only things about doing liposuction to the same area is you need to make sure you have fat there.  Most of the time it is not fat, it is only skin, which liposuction can not treat or it is intra abdomen fat which liposuction will not treat that either.  Make a consult with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon to discuss your concerns.

Hello dear, thanks for your question and provided pictures with information as well. I recommend you to have liposuction on upper and lower back, flanks, waist, upper and lower abdomen to get back to that figure you loved so much!

Based on the photos you risk having significant skin irregularities. Visit in person for an evaluation and then you will have a better idea of what to expect. Best wishes.
