Q: Mini Tummy Tuck, Liposuction, or combination for post-pregnancy tummy? asked by Confused about tummy ny
Liposuction removes fat. There may be some tightening of the skin after liposuction if you are yong and have good skin quality. You should get even more tightening if you have laser liposuction. If there is significant skin excess, or hanging over, it is best to have this skin removed with a tummy tuck. If you have mild skin excess, then a combined liposuction with mini tummy tuck woul dgive you the best possible results with a hidden incision that is about half the size of a traditional tummy tuck. If you have stretch marks, this may be a good indication that your skin has been "damaged" from pregnancy and will not tighten as much after only liposuction - another reason to have a combined procedure. I have been getting great results with this combined laser liposuction and mini tummy tuck procedure.
