Hello! I am a mother of 2, 5’4” 126-128lbs. I am considering vaser Lipo 360 with body tire and if need be a tummy tuck. However, I’d prefer to avoid a scar. I have this accumulated pocket of fat like a love handle just under where the underwear stops (bottom part). I can grab this far quite a bit and it’s definitely fat, not extra skin. Can I simple lose the weight and Lipo the stubborn fat off and avoid a TT? I TIA
Answer: Are you a Tummy Tuck candidate Thanks for your question. It is difficult to provide a proper evaluation without any pictures. I suggest uploading pictures of your front and side to best determine what procedure/s you would be a good candidate for. Always consult with a board certified plastic surgeon. Take care, Moises Salama MD, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

Answer: Can You Avoid a Tummy Tuck and Get Away With VASER Lipo 360? Thank you for your question regarding how to avoid a tummy tuck. Your question is difficult to answer without pictures or a thorough physical examination. However, based on your current weight of approximately 127 pounds, I would suggest you would probably respond best to liposuction. I would strongly suggest VASER liposuction of the abdomen, love handles, and lower back. In my opinion, the VASER gives the best results for liposuction. Postoperatively, it will be important for you to have lymphatic massages and wear your garment for a minimum of six weeks. I believe because of your age and weight, you will have optimal results. If you were unsatisfied with your VASER Lipo 360 results, you could always opt for a tummy tuck at a later date. It will be essential for you to heal completely after the VASER Lipo 360 before considering a tummy tuck. The timing is usually approximately 6-8 months after lipo before considering a tummy tuck. However, I think you will get optimal results with the VASER Lipo 360. Please seek an experienced board-certified plastic surgeon who has done many VASER Lipo 360 procedures.

Answer: How is your skin quality? If you are sure you have no loose skin as well as stretch marks in the area, then liposuction alone may be suitable for you. However, for a more accurate assessment please see a board certified plastic surgeon. They’ll need to check your skin quality to make sure.

Answer: Can I avoid a tummy tuck It's difficult to advise without any photos or an examination. If your concern is simply a resistant fatty pocket and not loose skin or abdominal wall laxity then you should have a nice result from liposuction alone. The best advice will come from a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon near you.
