After undergoing what appears to be very aggressive liposuction, as shown in my before pictures, I seem to have suffered burns. I'm concerned about the degree of these burns and whether they will heal, allowing my skin to return to normal. What steps should I take at this point? Additionally, I notice that I have no remaining fat at all on my stomach. Is this a normal outcome four weeks post-op?
Thank you for inquiring about your liposuction. I apologize for the burns you have sustained. These appear to be partial thickness burns, which will heal with skin discoloration and potential permanent scarring. It is likely that you underwent laser liposuction by someone without training in cosmetic plastic surgery. I recommend consulting with a plastic surgeon for further advice. Always seek guidance from a board-certified plastic surgeon. Hope you found this answer helpful. Best wishes.
Based on the photos, it appears to be either poorly done liposuction causing a 2nd or 3rd degree burning effect, or it could be a binder burn. It's best to seek in-person second opinions. May I ask where the operation was performed and by whom?
Areas may need taping, as well as injections to manage scarring. You may also require laser treatment. It's crucial to get in touch with your plastic surgeon as soon as possible. Low-level laser therapy may be needed. Patience is vital, as it will take time and a multi-faceted approach.
