The doctor said I could just get lipo for now but will need a tuck eventually . 5 months post partum. Will lipo make the appearance worse without a tuck or help ?
Answer: Liposuction Thank you for your question. You can have liposuction done without a tummy tuck. This procedure will help shrink you down inches, contour the waist line and you will receive some skin retraction if you use a laser assisted liposuction. The difference with a tummy tuck is that your abdominal wall muscles will be tightened and your extra skin will be removed. A tummy tuck can always be done down the line if you decide to do so. Best of luck to you.

Answer: Procedure recommendation Thank you for your question. Based on your photos, I would recommend a tummy tuck with 360 liposuction. This procedure will give you the flattest stomach, by repairing the muscle separation to the abdomen from having children, and removing the excess skin and fat. Liposuction alone will only remove fat, leaving more loose skin. I recommend consulting with a board certified plastic surgeon, who can create a personalized plan for you. Best of luck!

Answer: Candidate for Liposuction and Possible Skin Tightening While it’s difficult to tell from photos alone, it does appear you would be a very good candidate for liposuction. This procedure removes the stubborn fat from the midsection to give you a flatter abdomen. If skin laxity is also a concern, you can combine the liposuction treatment with ThermiTight for an even better outcome. ThermiTight uses controlled radiofrequency energy to heat the underlying tissue to stimulate collagen production. The result is smoother, firmer skin over time with results that are long lasting. An experienced, board-certified dermatologist with expertise in body contouring should help you achieve a very good result.

Answer: Can I get lipo without a tummy tuck? Hello, thank you for your inquiry and photos. Based on your photos you are candidate for tummy tuck to obtain flat belly and smaller waist. If liposuction is preformed only your stomach skin may become flaccid with time, if you plan on having babies in the future it would be best to wait on the tummy tuck. I suggest seeking board certified plastic surgeons with experience.

Answer: Liposuction Without a Tummy Tuck? If you are planning to have more children you should not have a tummy tuck. You could have liposuction but there will not be any muscle repair and you may have loose skin. Consult with a board certified plastic surgeon to learn what options are available to you. Good luck.
