I am scheduled to have a bbl using laser lipo. I have loose stomach skin from 2 pregnancies so the doctor thinks the tightening from the laser would be good. Will the laser lipo fat extraction method have just as long lasting results as conventional lipo? Will it allow me to retain as much fat? Essentially I'm wondering if any aspect of the results will be compromised by using laser lipo as opposed to conventional.

Answer: Laser Liposuction for fat transfer thank you for your question and good luck on your upcoming surgery. Usually it's better to avoid fat extraction for fat transfer with laser liposuction technique. You can certainly use power assisted liposuction, Water Jet Liposuction or Vaser Liposuction with great results with fat transfer and viability. A surgeon can definitely use one of the above mentioned modalities for liposculpture followed by Laser use for skin tightening only. It's best to discuss this with your plastic surgeon and review his/her results. Best of luck! Dr. Dhaval M. Patel Double Board Certified Plastic Surgeon Chicago, Oakbrook, Hoffman Estates
