Liposuction and a tummy tuck aren't designed to make you lose a lot of weight. They are only designed to recontour your body. For this reason, the treatments won't have a significant impact on your weight. However, if it is still shortly after your surgery, you may still be swollen which could be contributing to your weight. It's better to look at your overall contour rather than the scale.
Thank you for the question. I do not expect it there would be much weight loss associated with mini tummy tuck and liposuction of the lateral thighs. The weight loss associated with this procedure would be a few pounds at most easily compensated by fluid retention and/or minor weight gain associated with relative inactivity after the surgery.

Thank you for your question. Based on your photos you appear to be a good candidate for full tummy tuck with intense liposuction to improve your body contour and get better curves especially in your laterals and waist and Dominican Butt lift taking the fat we get and transfer to the buttocks and...
Dear Marcj20 Thank you for your question. The change in contour of your neck when you tilt your head down is not easy to treat- particularly if you do not have much fat under the skin. At your age the neck structures should be pretty good- as shown by your description when your...
