I am 5’3 and 160 pounds I have had 2 children and as a result I hate how my current body looks I am wondering if I am a good candidate for a bbl with 360 lipo or if I need a tummy tuck instead

Answer: Good Candidate? Hi Neaht25 thanks for sharing.Based on these photos. I believe that you have some excess skin that may require skin removal (tummy tuck) you may also have some laxity of your abdominal wall muscles that may need correction to provide a flatter tummy. However, I recommend that you are evaluated in person by a board-certified plastic surgeon who can better assess your skin, muscle and fatty tissue. Good luck!

Answer: Skin quality Hi! Skin quality is one of the most important components in deciding if the skin will retract with liposuction. As per the pictures, the stretch marks are a good predictor of poor skin elasticity and its ability to retract. If your goal is to have a flat abdomen, the tummy tuck will provide a better result as it'll remove the excess skin and also repair the muscle separation causing the bulging :) Hope this helps!
