Do I appear to be a candidate for liposuction around the waist? I have a large waist and want to reduce the size with diet, exercise, and eventually liposuction. Do I have Hip Dips? What is my Body Shape Type? Is it Hourglass, Apple, Pear, Oval Diamond, Ruler, Spoon, or Inverted Triangle, based on the picture I have provided.
Answer: Tummy tuck / Lipo Thank you for your question. To provide a valid medical opinion I will need to see pictures of you body from different angles. I would suggest to be treated by board certified plastic surgeon with experience in this procedure, to get the best desired results. Respectfully,Dr. Emmanuel Mallol Cotes.-

Answer: Am I a candidate for liposuction? What is my body shape type? (Photo) Thank you for your photographs and questions. Unfortunately, the photographs are too dark for proper assessment, and your underwear covers virtually all of your mid to lower abdomen. For a proper assessment you will need an appointment and examination by a plastic surgeon certified by the American Board of plastic surgery. At that time you will receive advice as to how you can achieve the body type that you want according to your diet, exercise, and self-discipline. With all of the above said, you appear to be overweight, and at this point I doubt if plastic surgery without weight loss will meet your goals. Once you have lost down to a reasonable weight a determination can be made as to the proper plastic surgery procedure that you need. Remember, a liposuction only removes fat. If you have extra skin it probably will require something like a tummy tuck. If you have a small amount of excess skin, a Renuvion, which is the minimally invasive procedure may be indicated along with a liposuction. Thank you for your question, and good luck. Keep in mind that a healthy diet, meaning lean meats and lots multicolored vegetables, will make you lose weight and give you longevity. I have patients that have lost from 50 to 100 pounds by just eating a healthy diet. Again, good luck.

Answer: Am I a candidate for liposuction? What is my body shape type Hello and Great Question. I appreciate the time you are spending researching this procedure. My name is Dr. Matthew J. Nykiel. I am a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon, a Fellowship Trained Cosmetic Surgeon, and a Butt Augmentation Specialist Based off your photos you would be a great candidate for lipo 360 which could help in giving you more of an hourglass figure. I would suggest getting to your goal weight first then going through with the liposuction to shape your waist. I definitely recommend doing an in person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon who specializes in this procedure and who can suggest what is needed. I hope that helps! Best of Luck!

Answer: Liposuction Candidate -- VASER HI DEF Liposculpture, ThermiRF, Fat Grafting, Renuvion, Inmode BodyTite, See an Expert You need a formal evaluation by an expert in body shaping and contouring to determine what is best. The best in body contouring not only removes fat with energy devices like VASER ultrasound but also internally heats the skin with radiofrequency devices such as Renuvion (J-Plasma), InMode BodyTite, and ThermiRF to heat the undersurface of the skin and tighten it at the same time as fat removal. These combinations are called 4D HI-DEF VASER Liposuction and can only be done by a well-trained body contouring specialist. At the same time, fat should be harvested and purified, with PRP and stem cells added, and then injected into muscles, indentations and cellulite to get body shaping and contouring. For a Brazilian butt lift (BBL), we inject the fat into 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 a combination of Cellfina, 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: tummy tuck/abdominoplasty for lower abdominal skin; breast lift for excess breast skin; and/or a brachioplasty for loose arm skin.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. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer.
