I had lipo 8 years ago on my stomach, knees and thighs. I was 6/8 before and 4/6 after. I love the new contour of those areas even after gaining weight after my baby. Now I’m 8/10 and hope for 6/8 after lipo. Most of the weight gain showed up in my torso. I used to have slim arms but now I can pinch a lot of fat. I also developed back rolls and big hips. I'm considering lipo in those areas and also the knees again. Judging by my description and pictures do I have realistic expectations?
Answer: Improving your Shilhouette Liposuction is mainly for patients who have problematic areas. Liposuction is excellent at removing unwanted excess fat, but it cannot tighten or remove loose hanging skin. As fat weighs very little when compared to muscle and bone it is not intended for weight reduction.. But it is excellent for sculpting and contouring a new body silhouette. When combined with a Tummy Tuck (Lipo Abdominoplasty) and a Brazilian Butt Lift the total body rejuvenation can be quite dramatic. Check your surgeons credentials, and their before/after photos before you decide to evaluate a good expectation.

Answer: Liposuction Thank you for your question. Based on your photos you appear to be a good full body intense liposuction including abdomen, waist, laterals and upper and lower back to improve your body contour and get better curves, especially in your waist area.

Answer: Liposuction expectations Thank you for your answer. Liposuction is a very effective method of sculpting and slimming the waistline, lower back, hips, and abdomen. It is reasonable to expect a loss of a few inches to the waist, and with it, a small reduction in dress size.

Answer: Liposuction Can Improve A Patients Overall Silhouette and Body Contour I do believe that you could expect a great result from liposuction of the abdomen, flanks, bra rolls, love handles, arms and inner and outer thighs. This overall body contouring with liposuction would remove some excess fat deposits from the aforementioned areas and provide you with a better body shape and the ability to fit into smaller clothing sizes. With that said, it is impossible to evaluate the elasticity character of your skin based upon your photographs alone so I would recommend consulting with a board-certified plastic surgeon who is well-experienced in liposuction procedures for a thorough examination and dialogue. One of the most critical parts of a consultation is the dialogue between patient and surgeon with regards to patient expectations and how realistic those expectations are. In your case, I do believe that you would see a nice overall reduction in size, which can translate to the loss of several inches around your midsection and thighs. While I believe that you would see a drop in your current dress size and that you might find it easier to wear certain clothes after another liposuction procedure, I would caution you from expecting to drop down to a specific dress size.
