Great question. Liposuction is a highly effective fat reduction procedure that can reduce the excess fat of the subcutaneous layer, but it will not shrink loose skin. After reviewing your photos, I think that you would get a much nicer result from a tummy tuck. A tummy tuck will address loose abdominal skin and stretch marks, and will also tighten the abdominal wall. Liposuction alone would reduce the excess abdominal fat but will likely exacerbate the appearance of your loose skin. I recommend setting  up a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss the best procedure to address your goals.

Your photos indicate that you are dealing with loose skin of the lower abdomen, which will limit the results achievable with liposuction. Liposuction can address excess fat of the subcutaneous layer of your abdomen and flatten its appearance, but will likely exacerbate the appearance of loose skin. For this reason, I think a tummy tuck will likely provide a nicer result. With that said, an in-person evaluation will be necessary to make a proper recommendation.  I recommend setting up a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss the best procedure to meet your needs. Best of luck with your future procedure.

An evaluation in-person will be necessary to properly advise you, but based on your photos alone, I think that you can most likely achieve a nice result without a breast lift. Provided that the implants are of a large enough size to add adequate volume, I think breast implants alone will likely provide you with enough lift. I recommend setting up a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to devise a treatment plan that suits your needs. Best of luck with your future procedure.

Based on your photos, I think you are a better candidate for a full tummy tuck. A tummy tuck will tighten the abdominal muscles and address the excess skin, giving your abdomen a flatter and more contoured appearance. A mini tummy tuck will not really address the loose abdominal tissues above your belly button. I recommend setting up a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to formulate a treatment plan that best meets your needs.

It is difficult to make a determination without an in-person assessment, but based on your photos, I think you could get a nice result from liposuction as you appear to have good skin quality. Liposuction will reduce excess abdominal fat, giving your abdomen a more contoured appearance. With that said, an in-person assessment of your skin quality will be needed to make a final recommendation. I recommend that you set up a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss your options. Best of luck with your future procedure.

Thank you for your question. I think you would get a nice result from a tummy tuck. A tummy tuck will address your excess skin, giving your abdomen a flatter and more contoured appearance. Based on the photos you provided, I think your tummy tuck results would be further enhanced with liposuction of the hips and bra strap areas. I recommend setting up a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss this further.

Your photos indicate that you are likely dealing with some laxity of the abdominal wall, which will limit the results achievable with liposuction. Liposuction alone will address any excess fat of the subcutaneous layer of your abdomen, but will do nothing do address the laxity of your abdominal wall.  With that said, an in-person evaluation will be necessary to make a proper recommendation.  I recommend setting up a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss the best procedure to meet your needs. Best of luck with your future procedure.

Thank you for your question. An in-person evaluation will be necessary to make a certain determination, but based on your photos, I think that you are a good candidate for liposuction of the abdomen. You appear to have sufficient skin elasticity, especially after having 2 children, to get a nice result from liposuction . With that said, I recommend that yo set up a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss the best procedure to meet your needs. Best of luck with your future procedure.

I am sorry to hear about your concerns. Based on your photos, it does appear that you are suffering from a double bubble deformity. This occurs when the previous infra-mammary fold creates a crease in the lower-pole of the breast as the implant extends below it. A revision procedure will likely be needed to  correct this. I would advise that you reach out to your surgeon to discuss your options. Best of luck.

Based on your photos, I think that you would obtain a nice result from liposuction of the hips. The best procedure to address the abdominal area depends on what your goals are. If you are simply looking to reduce the size of your abdomen and contour the waist area, I think that liposuction would give you a nice improvement. However, the shape of your belly button indicates to me that you have some degree of loose skin, which can only be addressed with a tummy tuck procedure. If you are looking to improve the appearance of your belly button and reduce excess skin, a tummy tuck may be a more suitable procedure. I recommend that you set up a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss your options.
