Female Height: 165cm Weight: 98kg Age: 28 I’m concerned I could end up with loose skin if I have Vaser Liposuction. Could you please advise me on what I could expect? Also, do the scars fade enough to not be too noticeable? If so, roughly how long does it take to fade to that point? I’m half black and half white. This is concerning Liposuction of my abdomen, flanks, back and arms. Many thanks in advance
Answer: VASER Liposuction of Your Abdomen Flanks, Back and Arms. Thank you for your question regarding whether you will have loose skin after VASER liposuction of your abdomen flanks, back and arms. Based on your pictures and your history, I do think you will have loose skin. I believe even with the VASER technology you will have loose skin of your abdomen, flanks and arms. Your back may not have much loose skin based on your pictures. However, your abdomen, arms and flanks will be significantly improved with VASER liposuction. The question is whether you would be satisfied with a smaller abdomen with VASER liposuction and skin wrinkles and/or tummy tuck and arm lift. On your abdomen you have distended muscle and excess skin and fat. The VASER will take care of the fat but I do believe the skin will sag. In addition, the muscle on the abdominal wall needs to be sutured not suctioned. Therefore I do think your abdomen will distend after VASER liposuction. After examining your arms, you have excess fat which don't significantly tighten with the VASER liposuction technique. Your back should VASER liposuction and I do not think the back will be left with loose skin. In regards to the scars from liposuction they fade very well. The scars will take approximately two years to fade but will always be visible. There are skin bleaching creams which can minimize the scarring. Additionally there is the fraxel laser to also make the scar imperceptible. Thank you for your question garding whether you will have loose skin after VASER liposuction of your abdomen flanks, back and arms. Sincerely, Dr. Katzen.

Answer: Saggy skin Hello, thanks for your question. The answer is yes. You could have saggy skin. You can have a j-Plasma assistance during your lipo, or have 360 Tummy Tuck to eliminate saggy skin. Consult a board-certified doctor in your area. Good luck!

Answer: No. We would make sure you have Lymphatic Massages in your package and also you will have garment to wear. These after-actions will help you with loose skin.

Answer: VASER liposuction The VASER is very good for skin retraction. You can expect good results regarding skin The VASER is very good for skin retraction. You can expect good results regarding skin sagging. The scars are very short (1cm) and they fade very well. However, in your case, please note that there is some muscle relaxation that won’t be improved with the liposuction only.

Answer: Skin redunduncy after Lipo Based on your photos, you are an excellent candidate for Lipo but after lipo, some type of skin tightening, either by Renuvion J-Plasma or skin cutting should be added for the best results.You would likely benefit from a high definition tummy tuck using high definition VASER liposuction. The tummy tuck procedure would comprehensively remove excess skin and fat in the abdominal region. The abdominal muscle would also be 'tightened' to create the appearance of a flatter stomach. A Skype or FaceTime consultation with a tummy tuck specialist will help you get an accurate recommendation and pricing. Respectfully, Arian Mowlavi MD, FACS Realself 100 Hall of Fame Inductee
