Am I a candidate for liposuction? (Photo)

Liposuction can be performed but your skin will more than likely hang. The technique I recommend is abdominoplasty with mesh reinforcement. The mesh creates a more hourglass figure by compressing the abdominal wall resulting in early satiety and helps maintain a reduced weight.

Hi, thank you for sharing your question. You are a good candidate for liposuction. This will allow you to achieve a flatter stomach. If you have been pregnant in the past, a mini tummy tuck with rectus plication may be a good option as well. A formal evaluation is best to determine the ideal option.

You are very reasonable candidate for liposuction. I would consider adding an energy device such as bodytite to further help with skin laxity. I don't think Tuck is warranted

Thank you for your question and pictures. I would recommend you a liposuction for betters results. If you're willing to travel, Surgeons in the Dominican Republic have experience and very high standard of excellence when it comes to plastic surgery. I'm positive you can get what you're looking for

Thank you for your question and photos. From your photos, I believe you are a liposuction candidate for de-bulking. I would have to do a physical exam to assess if you have diastasis-recti, which usually happens from pregnancy to know for sure if you would be a better tummy-tuck candidate. I recommend that you visit your provider for an in person exam. Thank you!

Thank you for your question. Based on the pictures it looks like you have abdominal weakness and this can be result with the muscle repair performing the tummy tuck combined with abdomen, waist and laterals liposuction for this reason from my medical view this is your first recommendation. I would suggest to be treated by board certified plastic surgeon with experience in this procedure, to get the best desired results.

Respectfully,
Dr. Emmanuel Mallol Cotes.-

Based on these photos, it seems that liposuction of abdomen, flanks and lower back (lipo 360) would created desired result. In person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon is recommended. Good luck.

Dear Austin6705,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering surgery, Based on your photos, it looks like liposuction would leave some loose skin. I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

Dear Austin6705Thank you for the question,Yes, you can have a good result with VASER liposuction. You may also want to consider scar revision to improve the adhesions and appearance of the scar.

Based on your photos, I think you should do very well with liposuction to your abdomen and flanks. I would suggest meeting with a board certified plastic surgeon and discussing your options.
