I’m sorry to hear that your liposuction procedure did not go as planned.

In my practice, I perform S.A.F.E. Liposuction as pioneered by Dr Simeon Wall Jr. It is a revolutionary 3 step technique that especially aims to treat problems that result from improperly done liposuction.

Treatment of dimpling and irregularities would depend on whether there is a need to remove any further fat in order to sculpt the body. If so, then a repeat liposuction with all 3 steps above should be done with care taken to even out the areas of irregularity. If not, then simple Fat Elevation (the F.E. Portion) could be done without the need to go through a full liposuction. This is akin to performing a fat redistribution under the skin to treat the dimpling.
