Liposuction with JPen without a tummy tuck - will I just be wasting money?

January 27, 2025
Asked By:ldoyle80 in Australia, AU

I am 44 years old and 165cms tall and 70ish kgs. My weight fluctuates 4 kilos but I hold the bulk of my weight in my mid region. I am committed to getting 360 lipo to remove some stubborn fat areas on my stomach, sides and back but some surgeons said without a tummy tuck, I will be disappointed. To be honest, I'm just scared of the recovery and pain with a tummy tuck and I'm not after a perfect washboard stomach but I also don't want to waste my time or money so I welcome your op
