Would I be suitable for lipo and BBL or would I need a tummy tuck? (Photo)

Hi, thank you for sharing your question. You are a good candidate for 360 Lipo + BBL. Based on the photos alone, a tummy tuck would not be necessary.

You do not have enough loose skin to justify a tummy tuck. Liposuction alone is best. If it is done properly (and not too aggressively), your skin should do just fine and may even contract a bit.

Dear Teagz1988,

based on your photos, you look like a good candidate for a BBL. Liposuction of your abdomen, back and flanks should give you more curves and hourglass shape and fat transfer to buttocks should give you more projection. I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon because only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Thank you for your inquiry! It looks like by your photo, you would be a great candidate for liposuction of the abdomen. We would love to meet with you virtually or in person to discuss your goals and create a surgical plan for you!

Based on the images my impression would be that you are a good candidate for liposuction, and depending on the physical exam I would likely suggest adding on a skin tightening procedure like renuvion to make sure your skin did not become lax after the procedure.

In your case, I would recommend doing a thorough RF assisted liposuction using the Embrace RF body tite probes. This will help you achieve a adequate fat reductio and at the same time causes a skin tightening. The skin shrinkage may take upto 3-4 months.

Thanks for your question! It doesn't appear as though you have any stretch marks so I think you could get a nice result with lipo and fat grafting. Good luck!

It does not appear that you need a tummy tuck. However, I recommend you do liposuction with possible BBL.

You would do so great with the combination of liposuction under local, Bodytite Turbo and Morpheus Burst. It is so easy to undergo and with only 2 days downtime. It is rare now to have to undergo tummy tucks anymore since the new lipo techniques with bodytite turbo and morpheus burst have had such great results.

In my opinion, Lipo and BBl can produce good results. Skin quality looks fine. Would consider a Tummy tuck if there is an element of Diastasis Recti(loose midline muscles). If considering pregnancy in the future then also would not prefer a Tummy tuck.
