125 lbs and 5'4" - How to fix my stomach? (photo)

Hello and thank you for your question.
It is very difficult to give specific recommendations without a physical examination. It's important to assess your skin quality, pinch thickness and the presence or absence of rectus diastasis. However, assuming you haven't had children and based on your photographs, you would likely be a good candidate for liposuction. I would also consider a skin tightening device like Renuvion to minimize the risk of redundant skin. Good luck. I hope this helps.

Hello
There is fat accumulation and skin laxity in the abdominal area. If CoolSculpting has been done, it can cause firming of the fat tissue and increased vascularity. I would recommend Vaserlipo for this. For skin laxity, Renuvion J-Plasma or BodyTite could be effective treatments.

Thank you for your inquiry! We would love to sit down with you in person and discuss your concerns and your options. Schedule a consultation with a Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon to assist you in reaching your goals!

Dear juliaguy,

it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. Based on your photos, it looks like you would benefit from liposuction. 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.

Hi! As a general recommendation i highly recommend against any cool sculpting as it can cause something called Paradoxical fatty cell hyperplasia. It is possible you have some of this from your prior cool sculpting. To improve contours give you a feminine athletic contour i would use VASER liposuction to smooth out the scaring caused by cool sculpting. When you seek out a consult make sure this is something the surgeon manages regularly (maybe 1-2x/month) This is a complex liposuction case that really requires patience, experience and time to correct.

At 5'4 and 125 lbs., your BMI is approximately 25, which is a normal range. You may want to consider liposuction.

Best Wishes,

Ultrasonic cavitation, cool sculpting and any other non surgical treatments are very limited in what the can really offer patients. You’ve abvopusly tried these techniques and are now aware they doing really world that well. Your only options now are either losing weight or liposuction. Both are great options for you. Stop waisting money on treatments that promis e more then what they actually deliver .

Best of luck,

Power assisted liposuction should reduce fullness with minimal scars and give you a nicer contour. It can be done under IV sedation in an office setting.

Providing that you want to see a real change in your abdomen, you should consider a liposuction. Consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon with good reputation in liposculpting should be your next step. Good luck.

Lipo is your best and almost only option for that great looking tummy. Be sure to get it done under local so the doc can stand you up during the procedure to fine tune it. Bodytite/quantum and Morpheus is also something that should always be done with ALL lipos for best results. You would look so amazing.
