I would like to get a BBL with abdominal etching for a very defined stomach. I heard it is permanent, does this mean i'll look like I have abs while pregnant? I head that the way it is done is by thinning out the skin - does this mean i'd be more prone to stretch marks if I was pregnant after doing ab etching surgery? How would the results differ than regular liposuction? Would having liposuction help me bounce back to my pre-baby body faster? Thank you for your input.
Answer: Should I have abdominal etching 2 years before I plan on having kids? You certainly can have kids after abdominal etching. I have had patients who have done this without problem. As I tell all of my patients... When you get pregnant, keep your weight under control... 15-20lbs weight gain. 25 lbs max. otherwise, you will stretch everywhere. And, yes, you will still have a 6-pack even while pregnant.

Answer: Liposuction Candidate - VASER HI DEF Lipo, ThermiRF/J Plasma/Renuvion/Inmode BodyTite skin tightening, fat grafting for buttock We typically recommend waiting until after pregnancy as you need to lose weight first before undergoing any cosmetic procedure to get the best outcome. For best results, it is recommended to be at your ideal or stable weight before getting a sculpting liposuction procedure. Liposuction is not a weight loss procedure, rather it is for sculpting and defining and removing problem areas that cannot be removed with weight loss and diet / exercise alone. With skin laxity, a tummy tuck or lifting procedure could be performed at the same time. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a bariatric doctor or dietitian. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Abdominal Etching and Pregnancy Abdominal etching is one of the most famous procedures of the moment, and it consists in taking the excess of fat tissue in your abdominal wall so that your abdominal muscles stand out. We have experienced that patients that get high definition liposuction maintain a better aesthetic look of their abdomen after pregnancy than those who have not had a body contour procedure before their pregnancy. We believe it’s due to the tension given to the skin from the scar tissue after such a procedure. There is also no evidence at all that abdominal etching gives a sort of predisposition for stretch marks. Please remember that the long term results also depend on your way of life, meaning eating habits and exercise. If you decide to get this procedure done always remember to look for a well trained specialist. Best Regards, Javier Soto, M.D. Plastic & Reconstrutive Surgeon
