Hello, I am a 39 year old woman. I have never been pregnant, but I have quite the pouch and some fat rolls. The muscles under my abdominal fat seem to be tight. I have read about lipoabdominoplasty and am wondering if it is suitible for me or if a regular tummy tuck would be better. I am also interested in getting an idea of costs for lipoabdominoplasty in the Orlando, Florida or Tampa area. I appreciate any information and advice you are able to offer.

Answer: Lipoabdominoplasty benefits The benefits of choosing a lipoabdominoplasty over a traditional abdominoplasty are vast and varied and include:*Better shaping of the abdomen: combining liposuction with a tummy tuck can achieve a more uniform contour of the treated area.*Less postoperative complications: precise surgical technique allows for the preservation of at least 80% of the abdominal wall’s blood supply due to fewer blood vessels affected, and the majority of lymphatic vessels are also preserved. *Reduced chance of postoperative numbness: less trauma to the targeted area and less disruption in blood supply mean that the risk of numbness is reduced. *Smaller scar: while abdominoplasty alone tends to require a large incision, the length of the scar can often be shortened to some degree by applying liposuction. Liposuction only requires an incision just large enough for a cannula, typically just a few millimetres in length. Through this incision the removal of fat is possible without more extensive incisions, minimizing scarring.*Minimal bruising, pain and swelling with an overall quicker recovery time.
