Thank you for your question. You are a candidate for a tummy tuck however to enhance your desired outcome I would recommend you bring down your BMI (body mass index) to remove some of visceral fat, that cannot be removed with a liposuction, and in that case we will have more lose skin to remove giving you a more contoured look

Unfortunately this is almost impossible to do. There are some RF devices that can do a little, but looking at your picture, it seems that you will need some skin removed. Your bet option is removing the skin like a c section (but longer) the results would be excellent.
Good luck,

The answer is absolutely. The doubt comes from the fact that you are thin. The thin Tummy Tuck can sometimes be more challenging than when a patient is overweight, or obese. The muscle repair has to be perfect since there is very little fat to cover any contour issues. Furthermore, the artistry is much more important. Placing the scar in a low position is paramount, and essential for a beautiful result I specialize in thin tummy tucks. My Bikini Tummy Tuck results speak for themselves.You are in the other side of the world, but I recommend that you meet with surgeons that specialize, and can deliver great results in thin patients.
Good luck,

The answer is that it depends. Massive weight loss patients, avid long distance runners, and genetically predisposed people can benefit from an early facelift. A thorough evaluation, and realistic expectations are the key for any successful surgical intervention.

Nicotine is the bane of facelifts, and any other surgery. The vasoconstriction is deadly to skin flaps, and increases the complication rate of any procedure. In ANY form, smoke, vapor, patch, chew, even second hand. I routinely test ALL my patients for nicotine, If they are positive I won't operate on them. I see it as my responsibility not to operate on nicotine positive patients, and we are all happier for that testing.

When can I go out in public without looking like I just had facelift surgery?
Asked By:AnonymousANSWERS (1)Most of my patients can go out in public after a week with a scarf covering their scars. After 10-14 days with a little makeup. Any bruising usually dissipates after 2 weeks.

When we are dealing with human tissue, the answer is as diverse as there are types of skin. Genetics, and environment are great indicators of how long your facelift will last. If your face started aging early this could mean weak collagen that will not hold a repair for a long time. Physical activities that involve bouncing, such as running, are guaranteed to cause early laxity of skin. I've seen patient start to develop mild laxity after a year, and others look tight after 10. So, the answer to your question is that it depends on the individual .

Your story seems interesting. With all due respect, I have not seen a truly flat abdomen after 4 kids. Regardless, assuming that there is no seroma (fluid collection), one possibility could be a loosening, uneven, or incomplete muscle plication. The fact that you started out flat after the surgery leads me to think of loosening, or breaking of the repair.This loosening could be from over straining during the first 6 weeks. The sutures holding the muscle can break, or cheese-wire through the fascia. This loosening of the muscle repair could give the appearance you describe. Unfortunately, if this is the case the only way to fixit is to repeat the operation. Lastly make sure you're not pregnant again.
Good luck,

What is the most comfortable and safe sleeping position after a tummy tuck?
Asked By:AnonymousANSWERS (1)The human body is designed for self protection. Pain, and discomfort guide us in the right direction. If a position is comfortable, most likely it will not have a negative effect. Obviously common sense play a big factor. If there are drains that can be kinked or other obvious issues check with your surgeon for specific details.

6 week post-op - 2 kids within 2 years
After having 2 kids within 2 years, I never thought I would get my pre-pregnancy body back. I consulted with Dr. Soler-Baillo who guided me in the right direction with my nutrition and advised which surgery would be best. A few months later I had liposuction on my back and waist along with a tummy tuck. At 6 week post-op I can confidently say that I never in a million years thought that I would look better than what I did even in my teen years! I am eternally grateful for Dr. Soler-Baillo and all of his wonderful staff! Thank you for making me feel beautiful again!

One year later from the original procedure I am so happy
Amazing Doctor!! The Staff is so professional and caring and Yari is awesome. Came to Dr. Soler-Baillo after having a breast procedure with another doctor a year ago. One of the boobs didn’t come out good and the other doctor said that it will be staying that way not much else to do. I was recommended to Dr Soler-Baillo and immediately he knew what the issue was and would help me correct it. One year later from the original procedure I am so happy and pleased that Dr. Soler-Baillo was able to correct the issue. Let me mention before I go that his stitching is the best. The scars are so thin you can’t hardly see them. Please don’t hesitate to make an appt with his office best choice you will make.

He really is the best and I am forever grateful for him
Words can not even begin to describe how happy I am with breast augmentation results, all thanks to this amazing doctor!!! Just when I almost gave up on wanting breast augmentation, due to another doctor/ facility turning me down, Dr. Soler- Baillo took me under his wings and reassured me that I was in the right hands. And he sure was right!!! He made the entire process such a breeze and made me feel safe and secured...I can't express how grateful I am to him and his entire staff!!! There is no place like his office! I can't not thank him enough, as well as everyone there who made me feel like I was special. I am extremely happy with my results. Never imagine I could have amazing breast that look so natural... he really is the best and I am forever grateful for him. Thank you!!!

Happy with my results - I’m healing incredibly fast
I’ve been a patient of Dr Baillo since 2008 or 2009 I can’t remember. My first experience with him was a tummy tuck and lipo sculpture. From start to finish then it was an excellent experience. To date I compare my tummy tuck with others and I STILL find mine is the best. Fast forward to 2021 and my 18 year old daughter wanted rhinoplasty. I would only trust Dr Baillo with my most precious treasure. She was soooo happy with her results. Now in 2022 I came to the realization that all if my health issues from 2017 to date have been related to my implants ( not placed by Dr Baillo for lack of better judgment smh ) I knew that I wanted him to perform ny explant and reconstruct my breast. He sat with me and discussed EVERYTHING on pros and cons and possibilities of mental and emotional changes after and I decided to proceed. I can’t tell you how incredibly incredibly incredibly happy I am with my results! I’m healing incredibly fast! His suture work compare to when I got implants ( with the other surgeon ) is impeccable! He is meticulous and the incisions are proof! I recommend Dr Baillo 100% and three times that. The staff there is soooo loving and caring and sweet you feel that you’re with family! Again if you’re considering any cosmetic surgery I highly recommend seeing Dr Baillo
