Is laser liposuction the procedure right for me? (Photo)

Hi thanks for asking the question and including your photo. It looks like you just need to remove a small amount of fat so you don't really need to worry about skin tightening. A simple power assisted liposuction can get rid of that stubborn fat. You are a great candidate for high definition liposuction if you want some definition. Using Vaser High def liposuction, skilled doctor can not only remove the fat, we can give you cuts and detailed definition.

Forceful thank you for sharing your photo. I can see that you are fit and only need some fine-tuning to treat a few stubborn areas to give you the best definition. I think you are an excellent candidate for Laser Liposuction or Liposuction with Renuvion Plasma of both your abdomen and flanks. I don't think non-invasive treatments such as Coolsculpting will do much for you. Wishing you the best.

Hey! Looks like you are in great shape. For small areas of stubborn fat, tumescent liposuction with either laser energy or AirSculpt are my preferences. Both are minimally invasive and quick recovery with great results. There are no sutures and scars are very small like the tip of a pencil. Reach out with any other questions and good luck!

Hello forceful56853,

Thank you for your question regarding whether laser liposuction is the right procedure for you. I appreciate the history and picture you provided. Liposuction is ideal for patients who have small, stubborn areas of fat that are resistant to exercise and diet. Based on this, I believe laser liposuction would be a good fit for you. A thorough physical examination is crucial to pinpoint the precise areas to target with laser liposuction. I hope this provides clarity on whether laser liposuction is the best procedure for you. Best of luck in your decision.

Sincerely,

If you are a serious work out queen and want to get natural shadows and even unveil muscle highlights please consider VASER liposuction which is the GOLD STANDARD in fat removal for patients like yourself. Please consider a virtual consultation with a high definition body contouring specialist.

Thank you for your question. Laser liposuction would be a great option for you to consider. It is designed to get rid of stubborn pockets of fat that diet and excercise do not respond to. There is minimal trauma and only 2-3 days of downtime. I would definitely consider this on your search to improve your abdomen. Good luck in your journey!

Thank you for your question. If there was a photo from the front two sides and the back, a better answer could be given. But there seems to be regional fat accumulation, not general. In this case, you are a good candidate for Liposuction. Vaser Liposuction is more suitable for you if there is no looseness in your skin and you have tight skin. In this application, fat between tight connective tissue can be removed without damaging the tissues. If you have loose skin, laser-assisted Liposuction is more suitable. While the fat is removed, tightening of the skin can also be achieved.

Liposuction will reduce excess subcutaneous fat. With good skin elasticity you should have a nice result. If you have abdominal diastasis you may want to consider a mini tummy tuck which would remove excess fat and skin as well as correct abdominal wall laxity. See a board certified plastic surgeon near you for a consultation to learn more.

Thanks for 1 posted photo. Any type of liposuction can improve your contour. I recommend local with IV sedation though because must be aggressive with the lipo. Expect fees in the $5,000 ranges. Best to virtual consult with....

It may come as a surprise to you, but liposuction using Lasers is actually not being performed by plastic surgeons for quite a few number of years due to their high rate of complications. The majority of plastic surgeons use power assist or traditional liposuction, which permanently remove fat cells that do not respond to diet or exercise. You should worry about not so much the technique of that reduction but a professional, who has a good record of having good results. I hope this helps and good luck from NEW YORK CITY PLASTIC SURGERY.
