Should I consider having flank liposuction done along with my tummy tuck? (photos)

Thank you for including multiple views of photos. In short, the flank liposuction helps create a better contour in the immediate term, and prevents contour issues in the future.

During a tummy tuck, a significant portion of the skin and fatty tissue is excised from the lower abdomen. The remaining tissue is then stretched downward to achieve a tighter abdominal appearance. As a result, the fat cell density in the treated area is notably reduced compared to the original state or that of the flanks. Failure to contour the flanks may lead to an abrupt transition from lower-density fat cells to the normal density in the flanks. This can result in disproportionate weight gain in the flanks if your weight fluctuates.

Hello; in the abdominal area, Liposuction only; not for reducing fat; in tummy tuck, it ensures for that; the tunnel opened between the skin and muscle in the upper abdomen; is narrower. During liposuction treatment, the upper abdominal skin; areas where it holds tightly to the ribs and resists pulling are loosened. Additionally, the skin becomes looser; due to the fat removal. In this way, Lipoabdominoplasty can be performed with less tension; it is possible for performing Abdominoplasty surgery.
You have fat in your abdomen and waist fields. Also, on your hip; there is a decrease in fat tissue and wrinkles on the skin. My advice for you; fat taken from the abdomen and waist; given to the hip and it balances the fat reduction; in this area.
