I want to get rid of my “muffin top”. I had a consultation with a dr and told him about my hips and the little pouch below my abdomen. He started talking about a tummy tuck. He said if I do lipo It would make my skin loose. Tummy tuck will fix my skin on the abdomen. But I don't think it will get rid of my hips which is want I want. I don't care about my belly other than the little pouch. And he doesn't do lipo and tummy tucks at the same time. Which one should I do?

Answer: Liposuction Thank you for your question. Looking at your photos I would suggest a laser assisted liposuction. This will allow your surgeon to contour your entire mid section, receive some skin retraction and reduce you down inches. best of luck to you.

Answer: Considering procedures From your photos it appears you would have good results from liposuction. It would address the hip and flanks area which bothers you. A tummy tuck would give you a tighter, flatter abdomen if that is one of your goals. Many surgeons will perform these procedures together. I encourage you to research board certified plastic surgeons in your area (the ASPS website is a good resource) and schedule a consultation with a few that meet your criteria.

Answer: I want to get rid of my muffin top, which treatment would be best: Liposuction vs tummy tuck? On the face of it, liposuction would be best for you. Your skin quality appears decent, no stretch marks or skin overhand. Looking at photos is not the same as feeling the tissues and assessing the degree of stretch but with that caveat, liposuction would be best.
