Yes, this area can be shaped and contoured with liposuction. It is recommended to be at or near your ideal/stable weight before undergoing a liposuction procedure. For best results, I recommend a hi definition procedure like VASER liposuction, which can be performed at the same time as a tummy tuck and body lifting procedure, if you're a candidate. I use VASER HI DEF with ThermRF and fat grafting to get the most fat removal, skin tightening, contour and definition. This combination will give you the most toned result. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a hi definition physique expert. Best, Dr. Emer

I appreciate your question.
  
Cost varies by geographic location, surgeon expertise, OR time, anesthesia, length of procedure etc.  I would recommend that you see a board certified plastic surgeon in your area who specializes in aesthetic and restorative plastic surgery and who is also a member of The American Society of Plastic Surgery.  You can call their offices in advance and ask for quotes prior to scheduling consultations.
  
The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam.
  
Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative plastic surgery.
  
Best of luck!

Liposuction will definitely improve your situation. Your waist, lower back, and sacral region should all be addressed together to maximize your result.

Thank you for the enquiry.
In my practice, treatment of the sacral fat is an important step to sculpting the gluteal area and creating an attractive transition from the lower back to the gluteal area.  This area is easy to treat with liposuction and improves the results of any liposuction treatment to the back.  I would consider liposuction of the hips and flanks at the same time.  It is an extremely safe procedure and not associated with lengthy downtimes.
Congratulations on your weight loss and I hope this answer is helpful.

The location of fat depositions is genetically determined. When weight loss occurs, it's not uncommon for there to be very stubborn areas that do not go away. Liposuction is ideal for this type of fat reduction. It's a very rewarding procedure and is done with only local tumescent anesthesia.

Hello
For the photos sent I recommend a tummy tuck and a liposuption back I have graft the fat in the buttocks, but it is recommended that you consult with a certified plastic surgeon who can guide and evaluate it personally, but I recommend a tummy tuck because if you Performs a liposupcion your skin can end with flaccidity, instead with a tummy tuck you will get a totally flat belly.But after performing the surgeries you should continue to exercise and continue eating healthy
I Wish You Good Luck, Dr. Manuel Ventura

The lumbosacral fat pad is an area that is extremely amenable to high definition liposuction and part of our contouring strategy of the lower back and flank area. A consultation with a high definition liposuction provider will provide you more specifics.
