I had liposuction and J-Plasma to my abdomen and flanks, 3 months ago.

nlgpaMar 24, 2018

I have some irregularities, and a teeny bit of loose skin above my belly button, and I would like it fixed, I have a lot of lumpiness of my middle abdomen, could feel the separation BEFORE surgery and now it is filled with lumps, and I think it it tissue that needs broken up or additional micro lipo.-looking for an expert at this in the pennsylvania area-please advise.
