Failed Liposuction? How to Fix Unevenness, the Sequelae of Liposuction? Case Sharing on Repair Surgery for Failed Liposuction
In out-patient
clinics, we often see pretty girls that dare not wear shorts or tank tops due
to unevenness after liposuction, bothered by having to give up on clothes that
show off their curves just to cover the unevenness on their body.
Even more people feel frustrated after having
worked hard for a long time without seeing any improvements, depriving them of
theself-confidence
they once had. I have taken the time to sort out the contents, hoping people
who are troubled do not give up easily. After all,
Why is there unevenness after liposuction? What
can be done about the unevenness?
Many people
experience unevenness at the liposuction site after a liposuction treatment.
How can this unevenness, the sequalae of liposuction, be improved? During the
repair process after liposuction, since the internal structure is gradually recovering,
there is no need to deliberately massage or apply hot compress to aid in the
repair.
If more than six months have passed and the unevenness at the liposuction site still persists, then, we should leave it up to a specialized doctor to assist in conducting an assessment. The focus of the assessment, in addition to the circumstances that arise at the sites, also involves a thorough understanding of which type of unevenness problem it is in order to formulate a liposuction repair surgery planning targeting the unevenness problem and evaluate if there is a necessity to carry out repair using a combined approach.
The unevenness is generally divided into “concavities”
and “convexities.” Although they can be divided into many types, the treatment is
summarized into two methods below. Through the illustration, we can better
understand the problems of concavities and convexities and how to repair them.
Concavities-The extent of damage should be evaluated to ensure
precise repairs. It often takes several sessions to complete the repair.
Convexities-How much should be retained should also be
evaluated to ensure precise removal. Finally, a large area of homogenization
should also be done.
Problem:
The site to be extracted is not complete.
Treatment:
Fat reduction should be done again.
Type B: The Right Thickness
A thin layer of fat should be retained during liposuction
surgery to make the skin smooth and give it a good appearance.
Type C: Excessive Thinness
Problem: When too much fat is extracted, circumstances of excessive thinness may arise, and the skin color may appear faintly pink with marble spots.
Treatment: Fat transfer performed again. Depending on the initial liposuction surgical approach, if the initial scar reactions are more severe, fat transfer results may be less desirable, and fat extraction may need to be done a few more times to fix the unevenness problem.
Problem: Excessive fat extraction may cause skin and
muscle adhesion and the skin color may appear faintly pink with marble spots.
Treatment: Fat transfer should be performed again, but the outcome may be less desirable, because there are no longer fat tissues in between and more sessions should be performed. If needed, in addition to liposuction repair surgery, regenerative therapy may be necessary.
Is “muscle lines that become more obvious after liposuction” an indication of failed liposuction?

Is “muscle lines that become more obvious after liposuction” an indication of failed liposuction?
Worth noting is that when the sub-cutaneous thickness diminishes
after liposuction is completed, the muscle curve and movements will be more
easily seen compared to before, but we must be clear that it is not considered
unevenness.
In fact, there are many areas in the human body where the
skin’s inherent and underlying skin fascia are connected by fiber, resulting in
curling up. Even for models with a perfect curve, weight changes will also make
the lines more obvious.
For example, there are inherent skin lines on the back
and side of the thighs. For the front of the thigh, if muscles drastically
shrink in size, waves can be more easily seen; cellulite is the enlargement of
fat cells, which intensifies the curling up of fibers. Liposuction can improve
the curling-up, but the existing structure will not disappear. Therefore, even
if one gains weight, the phenomenon of concave and convex cellulite curling-up
will still exist.
Why does the skin appear red after
liposuction? Is it pigmentation?
Regardless of the liposuction approach adopted, clinical
cases seeking help for unevenness have been encountered. The following
situations are the main factors causing the increased likelihood of unevenness.
1. The liposuction surgical approach
causes excessive bleeding, which likely results in adhesion and scar tissues.
2.If the heat-producing liposuction
approach is used, avoid the uneven accumulation of local heat. If the thermal
injury is more serious, liposuction scarring may be aggravated and there will
be greater resistance at the liposuction site when it is retreated. If it is
excessively sunken, the frequency of fat fillings and environment optimization
may need to be increased.3. Weight changes and sudden weight gain or loss easily magnify the feeling of unevenness.
4.The liposuction site design is not according to the body structure. Take liposuction of the thighs for instance, the phenomenon of abnormal ratios likely to occur and sagging hips can be observed.
5.The body’s fat in different areas varies in the degree of hardness. For example, the fat in the lower arm is softer, and the upper arm has more fibers and is harder. Without mastery of skills, excessive extraction in softer areas and failing to properly clean the harder areas are likely to occur. This phenomenon is likely to occur in the deltoid muscle of the upper arm, giving a “cuff” feel.
Unevenness can be treated. I hope that this article I completed today can be of help to all.
