At Hillcrest Plastic Surgery, we know that every body is unique and so is every aesthetic journey. If you've had liposuction before and are looking to enhance or fine-tune your results, liposuction revision can help you get closer to the look you originally envisioned.
Our board-certified team supports you with expert care and advanced techniques, no matter your goals — smoother contours, improved symmetry or more defined results. We're committed to helping you feel confident and closer to your vision every step of the way.
Liposuction Revision in Orlando, FL
Sometimes, your liposuction outcome might leave behind uneven contours, dimpling or asymmetry that doesn't meet your initial expectations. Our Orlando-based revision liposuction specialists can perform revision surgery to address all those concerns and create a smoother, more balanced outcome. We serve the Orlando area and patients from across the country and around the world.
Indications for revision liposuction include:
- Sagging skin: Removing additional fat from already sagging skin can worsen drooping. Determine if you are a good candidate before undergoing liposuction or being enticed by skin tightening devices.
- Dimpling or concave contour: Uniform fat removal is key to a successful liposuction procedure. Traditional liposuction requires delicate and even fat extraction to avoid concaving or dimpling.
- Silhouette imbalance: Revision liposuction requires an artistic sense of body shape to enhance the silhouette. Specialized techniques can remove fat from previously treated areas (liposuction, mesotherapy, Smartlipo™).
What to Expect During Your Revision Liposuction Procedure
Our providers will use various advanced surgical techniques during your revision to minimize an uneven appearance and dimpling, reduce loose skin, and fill any overcorrected areas from your first procedure. Because you’ll be under general anesthesia, you won’t feel anything during the surgery. After your liposuction revision, you’ll typically be monitored for several hours before being cleared to go home.

Frequently Asked Questions
If you’re unsatisfied with the results of a previous liposuction procedure, you’re likely eager to correct them. However, it’s best to wait until you’re completely healed to ensure you get the best possible outcome from your revision.
Typically, liposuction revision procedures aren’t performed before six months of recovery, but you might need to wait up to a year. Our board-certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Kenrick Spence, can give you a more specific timeline at your consultation.
Revision liposuction procedures frequently include other techniques. For example, if your original liposuction procedure removed too much fat in some areas or left dimpling, fat grafting could fill in dents or hollow spots. In addition, if loose abdominal skin is a concern, a tummy tuck procedure might be part of your revision process.
As more people try cosmetic procedures, more people are getting revisions across the board. The most common reason is that the original surgeon lacked an artistic eye or wasn’t experienced enough with certain techniques.
At Hillcrest Plastic Surgery & Dermatology, we pride ourselves on the results our knowledgeable board-certified plastic surgeons consistently deliver. They’re extremely familiar with the advanced surgical techniques that liposuction revision requires. If you choose liposuction revision with Dr. Spence in Orlando, you’ll be in highly qualified hands.
If you don’t want to take time away from your busy life to recover from a second liposuction procedure, you might wonder if CoolSculpting will fix your concerns. Unfortunately, this treatment has limits. CoolSculpting won’t correct issues like sagging skin or significant asymmetry.
It also can’t fix areas where you feel too much fat was removed, causing a concave look. However, CoolSculpting might be an option if you’re happy with the overall results of your first liposuction treatment but have a few areas where you want a little more fat removed.
Your recovery process will depend on the types of procedures we perform during your liposuction revision. If your primary concern is that an insufficient amount of fat was removed, you may be able to get more liposuction to achieve your desired results. In this case, your recovery will likely look similar to the first time.
If fat grafting is used to fill concave areas, the recovery timeline often looks similar to liposuction. Patients with more straightforward revisions typically return to work after one to two weeks. You can wear a compression garment for three to six weeks to reduce swelling and bruising.
Recovery may take longer if your revision plan requires a tummy tuck. However, light activities are still typically fine as soon as the first week, and core exercises can be resumed after six to eight weeks.
Schedule a Consultation
All patients want to achieve their ideal appearance the first time around, but like all surgical procedures, liposuction is not completely free of complications. When you visit our cosmetic surgery practice in Orlando, you will receive a thorough evaluation, including detailed drawings, an evaluation of skin tone, and a discussion of your desired results.
