Indentations around the thighs - Tried liposuction and Cellulaze. Any other options? (photo)

Question

I had liposuction and have also had Cellulaze to help fix the indentations around the left and right edges of the top of my thighs/edge bottom. I also have regular monthly Velahape laser massages. It's Particularly lumpy on the left. Is there anything else anyone can recommend to help smooth my skin as nothing seems to fix it completely.

1. Subcision
Minimally invasive technique that uses a needle to release fibrous bands under the skin.
Especially good for lumpy or tethered areas after lipo.
Can be done with or without filler/fat grafting afterward.

2. Radiesse or Sculptra Injections
Radiesse: can help smooth and volumize dented areas.
Sculptra: stimulates collagen over time; multiple sessions usually needed.

3. Nano-fat or Micro-fat Grafting
Harvests your own fat and injects it into the uneven areas.
Helps improve contour and skin texture.
Often used with subcision or laser treatments for better results.

4. Morpheus8 or Profound RF (Radiofrequency Microneedling)
Deep radiofrequency tightens skin and improves texture.
Helps soften lumps, thicken skin, and smooth irregularities over time.

5. Acoustic Wave Therapy (AWT)
Uses sound waves to improve circulation and smooth fibrous tissue.
Non-invasive and usually done in a series.

Dear hanamck,

it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.
