I am not look for perfection I just want some fat remove chin lifted and I will be on my way. I do not have the down time for a tummy tuck. Is it all possible for a consumer to request a procedure and get the request? Do you think Laser lipo or SAFE can help somewhat? I just want to look comfortable in my clothes is it possible? Pease help should I leave this area to have it done? Why do it cost so much for a consult 100-200 dollars is a lot of money to find a surgeon for you?
Answer: SmartLipo or Tummy Tuck Losing some weight followed by a tummy tuck will give you the best results. However, if your goal is to improve your appearance and reduce the size of your stomach to feel better in your clothes, SmartLipo will do that, but you can have some loose skin after the procedure. The recovery after SmartLipo is much quicker and less uncomfortable, since it is a minimal invasive procedure. Plus, most physician perform SmartLipo under local anesthesia, meaning you avoid being put to sleep, which is another advantage compared to a tummy tuck. Make sure you consult with an experienced board-certified physician who can assess you and explain both procedures and expected outcomes with you. Good luck!

Answer: Reducing abdomen without tummy tuck Thank you for your question and posting your pictures. Let me begin by saying that any form of fat destruction is not the answer for weight loss. If you came in to my office, I would explore whether undergoing a procedure would motivate you to adopt the healthy lifestyle choices to lose and control your weight. If so, then I would recommend a combination of Tickle Lipo with BodyTite or J-Plasma. The Tickle Lipo would reduce the amount of fat in the abdomen significantly and the BodyTite or J-Plasma would give some further fat reduction and significant skin tightening. Following any fat reduction procedure, lifestyle changes are critical. If you do not adopt them you can see an increase in visceral fat - the fat that surrounds your organs. This is the fat that causes high blood pressure, diabetes, heart disease, stroke, and even death.I hope this was helpful - Dr. Moore.
