Love handles / lower back - Will lipo help? (photo)

January 24, 2025
Asked By:Powerful425797 in Everett, Washington

I’ve always hated my love handles/lower back and no matter how much weight I lose they never change. I would love to get a tummy tuck but probably not for another 3-4 years before I can afford one. I have to go under for a small revision on my breast should I just go ahead and get lipo while I’m under or would it be better to wait until I do a tummy tuck? Do you think I’ll get good results with it? I really hold onto my fat in the back hip areas which makes clothes just look weird.
