Why is it not possible to have liposuction through the belly button to remove fat from below the breasts to the top of the pubic area, pulling and cutting off the loose skin, recreating a new belly button, to eliminate major surgery? This would seem to me to be much less invasive with a more speedy recovery.
Answer: Results would be limited Liposuction is commonly performed through an incision near the belly button. Many of us often opt for 1 or 2 additional incision when performing liposuction on the entire abdominal wall, as it allows for removal of fat from multiple angles, allowing for a more even contour.

Answer: It Would be Nice But... You would have an unnatural and also very limited result. In plastic surgery the shorter the incision the less dramatic the result.

Answer: Still surgery Someone once said if you think you have a novel idea, you have not read enough. Sure you can operate through the belly button and we commonly do liposuction through this area. However, you can't just cut out the loose skin and cinch it up into a new belly button. Your abdomen would look like a mess from all the folding and pleating needed to cinch up the skin to the size of a belly button. Try taking a t-shirt and cut a huge hole in it the size of a small dinner plate. Now try bunching up the edges to close the hole to the size of your belly button. That is what your abdomen would look like - not pretty.

Answer: Liposuction through belly button possible but might not be right for you You can preform liposuction through the belly button. You can remove "some" skin but that's where pictures of the problem and a discussion of your expectations are important. What may be right for one person could be a VERY bad idea for another patient. Pick a few Board Certified Plastic Surgeons in your area and then spend some time with them at a consultation. The time and money you invest now will go a long way towards your happiness later.
