Our Advice For Patients Dealing With Botched Liposuction Results

Liposuction is one of the most popular plastic surgeries in Chicago. When experienced surgeons perform these surgeries, exceptional results will have you looking slimmer, smoother, and happier with your new figure.

Nevertheless, there are unfortunate circumstances in which a cosmetic procedure such as liposuction doesn't go as planned. 

Patients sometimes end up with a treatment site with lumps and bulges instead of the smooth and symmetrical look they expected.

These unsatisfactory botched liposuction results can have a patient feeling even more self-conscious about their body than before the surgery.

Yet, there's no reason to worry. Some solutions will allow patients to reverse our fi their liposuction outcomes that haven't gone as planned.

At Elite Body Sculpture, we perform revision procedures that use advanced technology combined with a rapid recovery to give you the results that you've always wanted.

 Botched Lipo Explained

When diet and exercises have failed to reduce your stubborn fat deposits, liposuction works as an effective method to slim down certain body areas.

There are several forms of liposuction, but the traditional method uses a cannula to suction out fat, reshaping and contouring the treatment areas such as the hips, thighs, buttocks, and upper back.

It's a plastic surgeon's job to take great care of not damaging any surrounding tissues because severe skin indentations and deformities can form.

How Will I Know?

One of the main issues with botched liposuction is that you won't realize something is wrong until after the recovery—the tools used in traditional liposuction cause a lot of swelling post-procedure. Therefore, until the swelling subdues, you won't be able to see your true final results.

Yet, here are some scenarios in which your liposuction hasn't gone as planned:

1. Sagging skin
2. Uneven areas that have lumps and that are not smooth to the touch
3. Discolored skin that persists well after the recovery regime
4. In areas where not enough fat was removed, therefore uneven hills and valleys are present within the skin
5. A patient gains weight, causing the deformities to be enhanced.
