Is it possible to fix Marble skin/ Mottled skin after Liposuction on torso? (Photo)

jennsmith990Jun 12, 2016
I have had traditional and laser lipo done several times on my stomach, back and thighs in the past few years. After a particularly aggressive laser lipo that was done in Miami in 2013, my skin has turned into a marbled mess. Completely have lost self esteem and can never show off my stomach or back again. Anyway I can fix this?
