Would I be a good candidate for Vaser Liposuction ?

Hello !

It's understandable that you may be considering liposuction as a way to contour your abdomen and lower stomach after having four children. Liposuction can be an effective way to remove stubborn pockets of fat that are resistant to diet and exercise.

However, it's important to keep in mind that liposuction is not a weight loss procedure and should not be used as a substitute for a healthy lifestyle. Liposuction is most effective for people who are already at or near their ideal body weight and have good skin elasticity.

It's also important to understand that liposuction alone may not be enough to achieve your desired results, especially if you have loose or sagging skin in the abdominal area. In some cases, a tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) may be a more appropriate procedure to address both excess fat and loose skin.

Ultimately, the decision to undergo liposuction or any other cosmetic procedure should be made after a thorough consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon. They will be able to assess your individual situation and advise you on the best course of action to achieve your goals.


I hope this helps,
best of luck !

Liposuction is a cosmetic surgery procedure that involves the removal of fat from specific areas of the body. It is usually done through small incisions, and a tube-like instrument called a cannula is used to suction out the fat. Liposuction can be effective for reducing localized fat deposits, but it is not a weight-loss procedure.
It is important to note that liposuction is not a substitute for a healthy diet and exercise. While it can help remove stubborn pockets of fat that are resistant to diet and exercise, it is not a solution for obesity or weight loss.
It is also important to have realistic expectations about the results of the procedure. Liposuction can improve the contour of your abdomen and lower stomach, but it is not a guarantee of a flat and toned stomach. The final result will depend on your individual body type, the amount of fat removed, and your skin's elasticity.
Before considering any cosmetic surgery, it is essential to consult with a experienced plastic surgeon to discuss the benefits, risks, and expected outcomes of the procedure. They can help you determine if liposuction is the right choice for you or if another procedure would be more appropriate.

Hello, Thanks for your question. Unfortunately without photos, it is difficult to provide a specific answer to your concerns or determine if you are a suitable candidate for Vaser Liposuction.
However I would recommend two options for you to consider: abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) and Vaser liposuction on your flanks and lower back as the first option, or a less invasive approach with Vaser liposuction combined with Renuvion/J plasma or Bodytite on the upper and lower abdomen, flanks, and back area. The second option is ideal for fat removal and body contouring, and it can also improve your waistline. This approach can increase the likelihood of skin tightening, and my preferred method involves circumferential body Vaser liposuction ( 360 degree approach) and Renuvion/J plasma, which is an excellent option for women or men who want to improve their body contour and silhouette with fewer scars and avoid a tummy tuck. Renuvion only requires one session and is typically performed under general anesthesia or sedation in a hospital setting. Bodytite requires one session in combination with Morpheus 8 (three sessions four weeks apart).
Before undergoing Vaser liposuction, it's essential to have a preoperative assessment to determine if you are a suitable candidate. Factors such as a BMI less than 30-32, overall health, and medications you are taking will be evaluated.
It is important to note that liposuction is not a weight loss procedure and should not be used as a substitute for a healthy diet and regular exercise. Additionally, while Vaser Liposuction can effectively remove unwanted fat, it may not address loose skin or stretch marks. Therefore, it is important to have realistic expectations and understand the limitations of the procedure.
I strongly recommend scheduling a consultation with an expert body contouring surgeon for a medical and surgical assessment to determine the best treatment plan for you.
I wish you all the best in achieving your desired results.
