If I already have an hourglass figure before a tummy tuck will I still have one after?

Question

I don't like the box shape?

Marvin F. Shienbaum, MD · Answer

Yes, it is possible to conserve your hourglass figure after a tummy tuck. An hourglass tummy tuck consists of an abdominoplasty, liposuction 360 and   possible fat transfer to contour the body and enhance your hourglass shape. Adequate dieting, exercise and garment will help you achieve better results. It is important    to seek   out   a board-certified plastic surgeon in your area that specializes in   the   Hourglass Tummy Tuck.   Make certain    your   chosen surgeon   has     an extensive    before and after   Hourglass   Tummy Tuck Photo Gallery   documenting   prior patient results.     Compare    photo   gallery   results to   ensure    that you will be getting a true     Hourglass Tummy Tuck procedure.

Yes, it is possible to preserve your hourglass figure with a tummy tuck. If necessary, liposuction can be performed on your sides to give you better contour.

Hello and thank you for your question.   The best advice you can receive is from an in-person
consultation.  A well designed tummy tuck can accentuate your hourglass shape.  This can be done through a low and short
incision, all completely below the bikini line. 
The belly button can be designed to look natural and have no scars on
the exterior.   Your muscles can also be
plicated resulting in a flat abdomen. 
Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of
real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and evaluate
their results.  The most important aspect is to find a surgeon you are
comfortable with. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified
board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person.
Best wishes and good luck.

The goal is to maintain a nice curvy shape. Often liposuction of the waist at the same time is a good idea. Best to be evalauted in person.
