I had thigh liposuction and a BBL 6 months ago - is this cellulite or post-lipo dents? (photos)

looks like cellulite and this can be improved with QWO, RF treatments, morpheus, and injectables like sculptra. I suggest you get a formal consultation. Best, Dr. Emer.

Dear Rootzy,
you might consider Cellfina to reduce the cellulite. Patients are usually satisfied after the treatment (over 90 %). I would suggest you to consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon with experience with Cellfina.

Qwo is an option for you to address cellulite of the buttocks. It's an FDA approved treatment specifically designed to treat moderate to severe cellulite of the buttocks. There are a series of three injection sessions spaced 21 days apart. Final results are seen just 28 days after your final treatment! There is no down time. You can learn more about Qwo on my website.

Cellulite is caused by connective tissue that anchors the skin to the superficial underlying fascia. It’s sort of like tufted buttons and textured furniture. Areas that typically tolerate lots of pressure have much more connective tissue like the palms of the hands lower in her buttocks and back of the thighs. The typical areas where people don’t have smooth skin. Adding fat typically makes cellulite worse and this includes a BBL. Liposuction went down correctly should not have any influence on cellulite but the areas where you had liposuction are not typical cellulite areas other than perhaps the back of your thigh. Most likely this represents somewhat uneven Liposuction and possibly cellulite was created in certain areas that are prone to having cellulite and can be created by adding volume.

We really need to see before and after pictures to make an assessment on the outcome of any surgical procedure. Ask your surgeon for the before pictures or even better before and after pictures they took and use those for any future post.

Treating previously poorly done liposuction is very difficult as it is treating cellulite.

Without seeing your before pictures it’s very hard to tell.

Follow up with your provider.
