How Much Does Ksl Hair Transplant Cost In Edinburgh

I've been dealing with this issue for over two years now, so I believe this is the final result. I'm extremely upset about it, and I've been told that the doctor was too rough with the cannula. Is there any possibility of fixing something like this?

Hi there, it seems that the dimpling becomes more pronounced when you flex your arms. It may be worth trying a series of diluted Botulinum toxin injections to relax the pulling muscle connections. Another option is to add fat or attempt to release the tethers, but it is important to note that these approaches may be costly and may not provide significant improvements. Direct excision with a long scar is another option, but the trade-off is the noticeable scar. Whatever path you choose, take it slow and maintain a healthy level of skepticism.

I'm sorry to hear about your liposuction result. This situation must be very upsetting for you. While it may not be possible to completely reverse the outcome, significant improvement may be achievable. I recommend consulting with a board-certified plastic surgeon who specializes in cosmetic surgery. You will likely require a combination of small cannula (2-3 mm) liposuction, fat grafts, and skin tightening. A personal consultation is necessary to determine the most appropriate course of action. I hope this information helps, and I wish you the best.

Revision procedures and/or fat grafting may improve the appearance of the area, but it may not be fully resolved. If there is loose skin, it may need to be removed. A personal consultation would be required to assess the situation.

Revision for contour irregularities after liposuction may require micro liposuction and fat grafting to improve the results. Multiple procedures may be necessary, and perfect resolution cannot be guaranteed. Consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon is advised.
