Uneven stomach years after liposuction - should I be looking into CoolSculpting? (photos)

Hello!, thanks for your question. The coolsculpting is a device that helps to eliminate in a non surgical way some localized fat deposits, many times you will need more than one session in order to get the result you are looking for. Another possibility is to do again a surgical treatment.

From your description and photos it appears you would have the best result from a standard tummy tuck. This would improve the contour irregularities as well as remove excess skin. Further cool sculpting is not likely to correct your concerns. See a board certified plastic surgeon near you to learn more.

Dear realskinproblems,
I would have to examine you but it appears that this is a contour irregularity after liposuction. This happens often when areas the undergo liposuction are not feathered appropriately.
The good news is that it can be fixed and I have done so with good results before. While there is always a chance for contour irregularities with liposuction, someone who takes their time and uses the appropriate sized cannulas should give you a superb result.I have all my patients wear compression garments and I use multiple sized cannulas to feather out the result.

Cool Sculpting does not always work, so I would consider liposuction for the residual fat. Once you have lost your weight, then consider a tummy tuck if you have much loose skin.

A physical exam would answer your questions more accurately. If there is skin laxity, Liposuction will make it worse. If the skin turgid is good, then you may be somewhat improved with liposuction alone.
