I'm just trying to get a good idea. I hear the results are somewhat the same so I just wanted some clarity. Please help
Answer: BBL Tummy Tuck & Lipo In terms of harvesting fat for your buttocks with liposuction, the two procedures are the same. The big difference is in the result for a flatter abdomen. Liposuction alone is a great body contouring procedure for a patient with good skin tone and minimal stretch marks. However, if a patient has redundant skin, separation of abdominal muscles, moderate to severe stretch marks, a Tummy Tuck will produce a better result, for the abdominal wall will be reconstructed and loose skin will be removed.

Answer: What's the difference between tummy tuck with BBL and liposuction with BBL? The main difference between tummy tuck with BBL and liposuction with BBL is whether you need the excess abdominal skin removed. An Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) removes both fat and the excess skin while liposuction only removes the redundant fat. If you have bothersome excess skin in your abdominal area you might want to consider a tummy tuck. Locate an experienced board-certified plastic surgeon in your area and schedule an in-person consultation to have all your options explained to you in order to achieve your desired goals.

Answer: Tummy tuck vs liposuction A tummy tuck with BBL (Brazilian Butt Lift) targets the mid-section by reducing fat, tightening skin and repairing abdominal muscle separation if necessary. Fat may be harvested from the mid-section to transfer to your buttocks. Liposuction with BBL doesn’t include any skin tightening or abdominal muscle separation repair in your mid-section.

Answer: Difference between Liposuction and Tummy Tuck With liposuction fatty pockets are removed via small incisions and a cannula. For those with no muscle separation or loose skin this is often a great choice. A tummy will surgically remove excess fat and skin, as well as repair abdominal wall laxity. Liposuction is sometimes added to enhance contours. I recommend meeting with a board certified plastic surgeon near you to discuss your goals and determine which procedures are right for you.

Answer: difference between tummy tuck and lipo and BBL I typically would not do a BBL with a tummy tuck for recovery reasons. I think it is much easier on the patients as well as me, to do the BBL with liposuction first so that as much fat as possible can be used for the BBL, then after recovering come back for a tummy tuck if you still need it. I would suggest waiting 6 months to see if you have loose skin that would be treated with a tummy tuck. The results are not really the same because the BBL adds volume and shape to your buttocks while the tummy tuck really only improves your tummy and waistline, even if both use liposuction. Liposuction is commonly used with a tummy tuck, but has to be used to harvest fat for the Brazilian buttock lift.

Answer: Tummy Tuck vs. Liposuction with Brazilian Butt Lift The tummy tuck is better at improving loose skin of the belly than liposuction. So, if you have loose abdominal skin or separation of your rectus abdominis muscles (or both), you may benefit from a tummy tuck with your Brazilian butt lift. If you have just a little bit of excess fat of your abdomen and/or love handles, then you could probably get great results with liposuction with your BBL.
