I am 5'5. 125 lbs, 54 yrs old, and have never had a c section. No matter how small I am I cannot get rid of this thick, fat, apron. I have had it as long as I remember. Even b4 kids.Every woman in my family has it. Except my daughters. Is there any way besides having it sucked out, or cut off to get rid of it...Its nasty, and I hate it.

Answer: Apron
If you have hanging skin and fat then the only way to get rid of this apron is with a tummy tuck which removes excess skin and fat and tightens your abdominal wall

Answer: Belly Fat Apron
Dear Lynette6097,
Not every abdominal apron is due to childbearing. Heredity does play a role also. From your description, the probable best course of treatment is an abdominoplasty(tummy tuck). This will allow your plastic surgeon to repair any muscle changes secondary to childbearing and then remove the excess skin and fatty tissues. Liposuction alone will not work if you have lax skin and/or stretch marks. In fact, liposuction can even make it look worse.
Your best course of action is have a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon who can help you understand the procedure and your recovery.
Hope this helps.
