I am looking for upper and lower abdomen liposuction or tummy tuck. I don't know how else to describe it, but i need about 2-3" deep of fat removed from bra line to pelvis, side to side. Is there a particular procedure that would be best for this type of removal? Please see pictures. Thank You

Answer: Body contouring Thanks for your question and the photos. Body contouring can removed excess fat with liposuction. In addition skin and fat can be removed and the muscle tightened with an abdominoplasty. You definitely would need a surgical procedure to see a good result. CoolSculpting and other office procedures are not going to help. An exam would be helpful to assess how much the waistline can be improved. For patients who have a significant amount of fat "inside" their abdomen, it is harder to appreciably reduce their circumference. Find a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon in your area who is an ASAPS member and specializes in aesthetic body contouring. Best of Luck!

Answer: Fat removal Based on these two pictures a tummy tuck combined with some additional liposuction would likely be what you are looking for. A visit in person can help to confirm this recommendation and give you an idea of costs and downtime needed. Good luck! Dr K
