Would liposuction to my flanks make a big difference to my overall result? (Photo)

Question

I have enquired about a TT and it was suggested to me that I also have lipo to my flanks. Would this make a big difference to my overall result? I am unsure if the pain and additional cost will be worth it.

Thank you for your question, your body contour can improve after liposuction in your flanks and upper and lower back also I would suggest liposuction in your arms as well. I would suggest to be treated by board certified plastic surgeon with experience in this procedure, to get the best desired results.

Respectfully,

Thank you for your question.  I do think your a great candidate for liposuction of the flank area.  Whether or not it can be done at the same time as a tummy tuck that will be up to your Surgeon of choice.  Regarding cost, each practice will have their own protocol on what they include in a procedure or don't include.  I would suggest speaking with your Board Certified Plastic Surgeon in person to evaluate you and discuss your options.  Best of luck to you.

Hello @Ruby.Ruby, thank you for your question. You should have a personalized assessment of the process and a surgical plan that takes into account a number of factors, including what you expect and what you may be able to accomplish in the long run as well as pre and postoperative details. To determine the best course of action, a personalized consultation is necessary, in which all aspects are considered. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez, MD FACS.

Dear Ruby.Ruby7,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

An examination is needed to be sure, but you appear to have some excess fat which can be removed. As you get older, this area will become more noticeable and you will be glad you did liposuction.
