I am 23 195 5'7 and everything is pretty even and distributed. I had a consoltation for Lipo of my abdomen, flanks, arms, and back. My question is, is it a waste to do liposuction now and a tummy tuck after I have one more child or will I need more Lipo after the tummy tuck? Should I wait? Do you think I'd benefit from Lipo? Doctor said I'll have a little bit of loose skin, but it will look better than it does now? I work out 4 times a week and I'm eating clean. I have lost 30 lbs and plan on losing more
Answer: Tummy tuck Hello and thank you for your question. The main question is how soon are you planning to have another child? I would not recommend liposuction only. You have too much skin laxity. Based on your photograph, you are a great candidate for a tummy tuck with liposuction. This can be done through a low and short incision, all completely below the bikini line. The belly button can be designed to look natural and have no scars on the exterior. Your muscles can also be plicated resulting in a flat abdomen. Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and evaluate their results. Best wishes and good luck. Richard G.

Answer: VASER Hi Definition Liposuction / Body Contouring / Butt Lifting / Cellulite Improvement / Tummy Tuck You need a mommy makeover, do not waste your money with liposuction or non invasive treatments until you are done having kids. Then you can get hi definition contouring with skin removal. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Liposuction Hi and thank you for your pictures and questions. I cannot speak for your arms and back but I would not recommend liposuction alone for your abdomen. You have enough loose skin and stretch marks that your abdomen may actually look worse after liposuction alone. A full tummy tuck would provide the best results but if you planning on more children, it is probably best to wait until you are finished with pregnancies before a tummy tuck. Good luck!

Answer: Liposuction between children Liposuction can be performed between having children as, generally speaking, tummy tuck is not a good idea until you are done with having children. Liposuction and its advanced version, BodyTite, will remove fat and can also shrink some, not all, of your skin.Please make sure that you see an experienced doctor for a thorough consultation and assessment prior to undergoing any treatments.Best regards and I hope this helps, Dr. Sapijaszko.
