Dents, grooves, dimples, unevenness — not the same problem

Q. Why does depression occur?

Depression is not always caused only by a lack of fat. Adhesion after liposuction, volume deficiency, fibrosis, and skin pulling can act together. Similar-looking dents may require different approaches, so NB first reviews the structure and movement of the current line.

Q. Is fat grafting enough?

Micro fat grafting may help when volume is deficient. However, if tissue is being pulled by adhesion, filling alone may not create smooth line continuity. Depending on the condition, adhesion release, redistribution, and micro fat grafting may be planned together.

Q. Does adhesion always need to be released?

If adhesion is the cause of depression or skin pulling, releasing the tissue connection may be considered first. This is especially relevant when indentation appears with movement or the skin is pulled in a specific direction.

Q. Can it recur?

Healing can vary by tissue condition and lifestyle. NB focuses not only on the immediate postoperative appearance but also on the stabilization process, using recovery care when appropriate to support tissue healing and contour stability.

Q. How long is the recovery period?

Recovery varies by area and treatment range. Swelling and bruising commonly settle gradually over weeks, and contour refinement may continue over months. Revision areas often require careful recovery management.

Q. Where should you look first when the arm looks uneven after liposuction?

The inner and outer arm run into one another past the elbow. When only one section has been reduced, the difference in thickness against the untouched section can read as a ripple. Before any correction NB checks the inner arm, outer arm and shoulder connection together to work out which section is actually blurring the line.

Q. What causes a thigh to look uneven after liposuction?

The thigh has a thick fat layer over a wide area, so uneven removal can show through at the surface. If skin elasticity has also dropped, the same degree of contour irregularity can look more pronounced. NB checks both the difference in tissue thickness and the state of skin elasticity before setting the scope of a correction.
