Primary liposuction needs the skills, experience and efficiency of a qualified plastic surgeon if you are to experience safe and optimal results. However, handling a secondary liposuction is even more challenging. Only a qualified liposuction surgeon with an excellent know-how of the wounding process can perform it successfully by correcting the flaws of the primary lipo. Even when many men and women undergoing advanced treatments such as laser liposuction report improved satisfaction rates, there are some others expressing concerns such as certain imperfections and not getting the desired results. In the latter case, secondary liposuction may become necessary. The surgeon’s skill, experience, and attention to detail are crucial when it comes to performing the secondary lipo treatment effectively.
A reliable plastic surgeon designs an appropriate individualized treatment plan for the secondary lipo after taking into account these factors:
- Your age
- Location of the fat
- Skin type
- Amount of loose skin
- Ability of the skin to contract
High-tech tools and advanced surgical techniques are essential to bring about good aesthetic results after a secondary lipo. Smartlipo liposuction is a good option as it involves a slightly gentler wounding process. Irrespective of these techniques and tools, the role of a qualified surgeon is most important. For consistent post-surgery results, the creation of an extremely uniform wound and control over the healing process are important considerations. Only a good surgeon can handle these cases with minimum trauma to the patient and excellent aesthetic outcomes.
Those seeking a secondary procedure because of unsatisfactory results after the primary lipo can find it emotionally challenging in most cases. A trained and experienced surgeon can handle the situation well by enhancing your confidence, making you emotionally stable and helping you to approach the treatment with realistic expectations.
You can see the final results of the treatment only about six months after the initial liposuction procedure. A revision liposuction should be considered only after that. That would be the right time for you to consult a good surgeon to talk about the flaws observed and the improvement you need. Some of the reasons why a secondary treatment is considered include:
- Too little or too much fat was removed during the primary lipo
- Uneven contours
- Scarring
- Results are asymmetrical
- Visible irregularities
Compared to primary liposuction procedures, revision liposuction procedures are more challenging because they require a more aesthetic eye to correct the contour irregularities of the primary lipo. This is why secondary liposuction needs to be performed by a reliable plastic surgeon. Choose your surgeon only after careful consideration. Once the procedure is over, follow the advice of the surgeon to enjoy a smooth and safe recovery. Following a healthy lifestyle is important to maintain the good results for a long period of time.
