Healthy people at their ideal weight should have the best overall recovery from a TT and lipo, but some of this will depend upon the surgical technique and adherence to postoperative protocols. Liposuction, combined with the TT, will allow you to have stubborn fat resistant to exercise and diet removed from unwanted areas. A TT with muscle tightening will create a flat abdomen and would also provide the benefit of placing your incision along the lower pubic region. The TT also creates a more youthful belly button. If the waist was smaller at one time, the waist can likely be reduced to those same measurements or smaller provided the muscular and fascial integrity has remained the same.Consult with a board certified PS who has performed hundreds of TTs and liposuction procedures with favorable patient reviews and great results evidenced in before and after photos on his/her website.
Hello!A corset tummy tuck I believe means you will get muscle repair in addition to skin removal. If you have lax muscles the procedure is indicated. If the fullness in your abdomen is just some local fatty deposition, then liposuction would be a better option, and liposuction in addition of waist and back may make an even nicer waistline.I would recommend you see a board certified plastic surgeon. You can find one at plasticsurgery.org.Best of luck!
The rib cage will not be impacted by a tummy tuck. The procedure can tighten any muscle separation of the abdomen and remove excess fat and skin. Liposuction can help to contour the area. The surgeon still must work within the framework of your body's anatomy.
Thank you for sharing your question. A tummy tuck muscle repair will help to narrow the soft tissue waist of a patient if it has been stretched or separated over time, weight loss, or pregnancy. This is the area between the rib cage and upper hip bone. Otherwise the rib cage alone will not materially be impacted.
Thank you for your questions and your pictures. I think a tummy tuck with liposuction is the preferred treatment for you to achieve your goals. You will have a flat abdomen with smaller waist and good abdominal contour. Best of luck!
