I recommend you a Tummy Tuck to get a flat abdomen and waist and back Liposculpture, getting better curves especially in the waist, improving your body contour.

Finally, I suggested take the fat we get and transfer to the buttocks and hips, to mold them and get better volume, contour and butt projection, is that we know as "Brazilian Butt Lift" (BBL).

Kind regards,
Dr. Emmanuel Mallol Cotes.-

Hi, thank you for sharing your question. Based only on these photos, I believe you are a great candidate for 360 Lipo with BBL. I don’t think that you will be denied.

Carmina Cardenas, MD · Answer

The issues on your abdomen are mainly: saggy skin above and below abdomen and very loose muscle, some visceral fat and not a lot of subcutaneous fat. 
Liposuction will only reduce the thickness of the subcutaneous fat but it will not fix the saggy skin and either the loose muscle. So you will end up with a deflated lumpy abdomen and still protruding because the main issues will remain. 
You are a perfect candidate for a Tummy Tuck and muscle repair to achieve a beautiful flat abdomen, smaller and tapered waist line and tight skin, use a Very low incision easy to cover with a bikini. Saggy skin will need a girdle to look good. 
Be encouraged to do the correct procedure.

In most cases, liposuction and BBL can performed even if tummy tuck is indicated if pregnancy in the future is planned. How flat the abdomen will be will depend upon how much fat is removed from the area as well as how you heal. If the waist was smaller at one time, the waist can likely be reduced with liposuction to those same measurements or smaller provided the muscular and facial integrity has remained the same. In my practice I look for a BMI approximating 30 to lessen the risks of complications during and after surgery and to enhance the results of the procedures. It is best to be within 10 pounds of your weight goal for three months prior to the BBL.

Dear Gorgeous762828,
based on your photos, you look like a good candidate for a BBL. Liposuction of your abdomen, back and flanks should give you more curves and hourglass shape and fat transfer to buttocks should give you more projection. I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon because only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Based upon the posted photos you are a great lipo 360/ BBL surgery candidate! Best to virtual consult.... Fees from $6,500-$15,000.

The fact that you have fat on your belly is good since it allows you to get a 360 lipo with BBL. What you need is a consultation to determine your skin tone which may need a supplemental skin tightening procedure. Please consider a virtual consultation with a high definition BBL specialist to determine your customized surgical plan.

Anyone seriously interested in having Aesthetic surgery needs to have consultations to get a proper assessment, get to know the surgeon and have understanding about the treatment and alternatives.

I recommend patients avoid virtual consultations whenever possible.

I also recommend patients stay local for elective surgical procedures.

Delivering consistent quality results with Liposuction and fat transfer is more difficult than most people believe.

Liposuction and results are permanent and irreversible.

To understand your own candidacy and properly that each individual plastic surgeon I suggest having multiple consultations.

During consultations ask each provider to show the entire collection of before and after pictures.

Make absolutely sure after pictures are taken at least three months from the date of surgery.

Early postoperative pictures can be very impressive but do not at all represent final results.

A tummy jack is a procedure that primarily treats abdominal skin laxicity and muscle separation from previous pregnancies called diastas is rectii.  Excess subcutaneous fat is treated with Liposuction.

When having liposuction of your abdomen I recommend having your full back and under arm area treated as well.

Picked a ride plastic surgeon and everything falls into place.

To me you don’t look like you need a tummy tuck.
Best,

It is hard to appreciate the nature of the abdomen from the limited photo views. You also did not provide any possible pregnancy history which may suggest skin laxity. You need to consult with a Board Certified plastic surgeon who can then evaluate the abdomen to see if liposuction is enough or if a Tummy tuck is necessary. Good luck!
