Do you think aqua lipo would eliminate this fat? How much fat can be removed from my abdomen? Is aqaulipo the best procedure?

Thank you for posting your question. These photos are not very adequate for evaluation, but it seems to me that you might be overweight and lipo is not your best option. Lipo only treats the fat beneath the skin. Some types of lipo can help with skin contraction but they will never be comparable to a tummy tuck. If your BMI is good then you would be a candidate for a TT with Lipo. Every surgeon has his own BMI limit. If your BMI is too high, it would be safer to start with weight loss prior to having the TT done. Please don't be fooled by the cool sounding names for different types of lipo. Your best choice is without a doubt a tummy tuck. Some of these do help with skin retraction. But generally speaking, results depend on the surgeons expertise and not on the technology being used.Best of luck,Dr. Miguel Mota

Your photos are totally inadequate for an evaluation, I am assuming you are talking about your abdomen. However, attempting to gain some knowledge from the photos leaves me thinking that no kind of liposuction would be adequate. Your photos need to be in the standing position and with no cloths over your abdomen. They need to be from the front and sides.My guess is that you will need a tummy tuck probably with liposuction. No, in my opinion, there is no method of liposuction that is better than another. The skill of the plastic surgeon is what makes the difference.  If you don't want to do this, then a personal consultation with a plastic surgeon is your best move going forwardThank you for your question, and good luck.

You need a formal evaluation by an expert in body shaping and contouring to determine what is best.  Traditional liposuction awake and smart liposuction are old methods and do very poorly for tightening skin or significant skin tightening or contouring.  Small problem areas can be improved slightly by these methods.  The best in body contouring not only removes fat with energy devices like VASER ultrasound but also internally heat the skin with radio-frequency devices such as J PLASMA/RENUVION, InMode BodyTite, ThermiRF to heat the under surface of the skin and tighten it at the same time as fat removal. These combinations are called 4D HIDEF VASER contouring and can only be done by a well . trained body contouring specialist. At the same time fat should be harvested, PRP and stem cells added and injected into muscles or indentations/cellulite to get body shaping and contouring.  This is known as a Brazilian butt lift when you inject the fat to the buttock for contouring and lifting, but fat can also be used in areas such as the chest/breast, arms/shoulders, calves and face.  Cellulite should also be treated with cellfina, sculptra, subcision and/or fillers such as bellafill, renuva synthetic fat, or sculptra.  If skin is very loose before surgery then it will need to be removed such as lower abdominal skin (tummy tuck/abdominoplasty), breast skin (breast lift), arm skin (brachioplasty).  Overall you need a full assessment, but simple liposuction alone will not tighten skin and needs a combination of various methods -- fat removal, skin tightening, defining, fat grafting, skin removal -- to get the best in body contouring and body sculpting.  Dr. Emer.
