Will I end up with loose skin after liposuction? (Photo)

The areas are sculpted as the patient desires. The results depend very little on the method used and very much on the board certified plastic surgeon selected. The patient must have adequate skin elasticity to allow for skin retraction after surgery. This factor is the most important element to good results aside from technical proficiency of the surgeon and the patient’s ability to follow the post operative regimen of wearing the compression garment appropriately. Generally your BMI should be less than 30 for the best results,

I think you would get a very acceptable result with the lipo and bodytite together if done under local rather than general. You can really fine tune the results under local which you can't under general. Under local you can stand the patients up and fine tune the results easily. Sincerely, Dr Hansen

Thank you for your question and photos. A BBL is both a technical and artistic procedure. Based on these photos, you do have enough fat for a BBL, but the area you are asking about is covered by clothing. Although you do have stretch marks on your mid and upper abdomen, I've seen excellent skin tightening using the VASER Hi Def Lipo technique.This needs to be done 360 degrees (all areas must be connected with lipo to allow for maximal "shrink wrap" effect of the skin around your bony and muscle anatomy).

See a board certified plastic surgeon experienced in advanced body sculpting techniques for an in person consultation/evaluation. Now you see the limitations of a video conference/virtual consultation. An in person examination is imperative to come up with the final surgical plan. Good luck.

Dear taylor_sc,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. BAsed on your photos, it looks like you would get good results after liposuction. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Hello, thanks for your question. By your photos, you are a candidate for Liposuction with Tummy Tuck. Liposuction may eliminate the extra fat around your waist and stomach, while Full Tummy Tuck extracts saggy skin below your belly button and stretch the abdominal muscles. Don't forget to have an exam with a board-certified plastic surgeon in your area for a complete evaluation. Good Luck!
