I’ve never lost more than 2 stone, pregnancy only to 6 months and hypermobility, have had 3 consultations now who have all said I have loose skin all over, particularly on my abdomen which is very noticeable in the picture. (I am sat upright) I have been told I don’t have enough fat for a bbl but wanted to try a skinny bbl, I’m not thin I’m athletic with a lot of lean muscle but also some fat for certain! Will liposuction on the abdomen be a big no or a little be ok? Is bodytite actually good?
Answer: Methods That Will Work Hello; there is looseness in both the lower abdominal skin and the upper abdominal skin fields. After fat is erased; skin laxity will also increase as well. The best solution is; "lipoabdominoplasty." If you do not want a Full Tummy Tuck; Abdominal Vaserlipo, for the upper abdomen; Renuvion J Plasma, also in the lower abdomen; Mini Abdominoplasty can be performed. The extracted fat, can be used; in order to enlarge the hips. I don't think; Bodytite implementation will work alone. After bodytite, relevant fats are removed since; the oils are heated up to 70 °C during the process; as living ability decreases. I do not think; it can be used for hip enlargement.

Answer: Abdominal Skin Tightness After Liposuction for BBL: BodyTite vs. Traditional Lipo Hi, thank you for your question regarding whether your abdomen will have loose skin after liposuction required for a BBL. In general, BodyTite may tighten skin better than traditional Lipo. Therefore, to maximize your skin contractility after, I would suggest BODYTITE. However, your pictures show excess abdominal skin and fat. You really need a tummy tuck. Liposuction will make your tummy rolls worse. I don’t think your tummy skin will bounce back after liposuction. Most plastic surgeons would advise that you should go for a solid BBL. That means I would ask your plastic surgeon to harvest as much fat as possible and transfer it to the butt. Recover from that surgery, and then, reevaluate your abdomen. Ideally, the skin contracts, and you are done. However, if your tummy skin does not contract, you may require a tummy tuck. If you go for a small BBL, or a moderate amount of fat transfer, you won’t see much of a result in terms of BBL. I hope this helps answer your question regarding liposuction of your abdomen leading to loose skin, and what machine is better, traditional liposuction, or BODYTITE. Good luck. Sincerely, J. Timothy Katzen, MD, FASMBS, FICS Plastic and Aesthetic Surgeon Sidenote, next time when. you submit photos, perhaps include some standing so we can. get a better understanding of your stomach projection and loose skin.

Answer: Abdomen You need to post a photo with you standing upright--frontal and side views. However, liposuction removes excess fat but does not tighten loose skin.

Answer: Loose skin and liposuction Liposuction deflates the skin in the same way that loosing weight deflates the skin. The more fat that is removed the more the skin has to try to contract. If your skin is already loose then it probably won't do a great job of contracting after liposuction. Devices like body tight and Renuvion can do a good job of getting the tissue to contract somewhat more than it would on its own but it doesn't correct loose skin (it just makes it better than it would have been if you didn't use it). Also, sitting is a particularly bad way to evaluate the elasticity of your skin. Everyone will have skin that bunches up when they are sitting

Answer: Tummy tuck with mesh You have too much skin for liposuction. You will need a tummy tuck. If you are not planning future pregnancies, I recommend abdominoplasty with mesh reinforcement. The mesh creates a more hourglass figure by compressing the abdominal wall resulting in early satiety and helps maintain a reduced weight. Best Wishes, Gary Horndeski, M.D.
