Can I get a touch up lipo?

I got Lipo 360 back in September and I’ve reached my 6 month mark. I’ve noticed some irregularities as well as a little bit of leftover fat. The dr has marked the areas which he said he could touch up. Maybe it's just me but I still think I have a little bit of fat in both flank areas as well as my overall lower abdomen in general. I would like more opinions if it's possible for anything more to be removed besides what he has mentioned. Thank you!

Hello! So you are about 3 months out. The focal surface irregularities are still modifiable with massage and compression. If an area looks totally untreated, that would benefit from another liposuction procedure. Minimally invasive treatments are not as effective as surgical treatments. I would...

To some extent the fat grafting will help. id say perhaps by 50%. the skin is a bit on the loose side and for that you will need some laser treatments to help with skin laxity and that together with fat grafting will help to restore most of the problems you're having. I have my own patented...
