Correction after liposuction begins by distinguishing true volume problems from scar, skin laxity and surface irregularity.
Some contour defects reflect excess fat; others reflect over-resection, tethering, uneven transitions, skin quality or a combination. The treatment therefore may involve additional reduction, selective fat grafting, release of scar, skin excision or observation.
Why revision is different
- Prior cannula paths can create scar and adherence.
- Over-treated areas may have limited soft-tissue reserve.
- Fat graft survival is variable and should not be represented by a fixed guarantee.
- Perfect surface uniformity is not a realistic promise.
