I had a breast augmentation back in December of 2018 & I gained weight. I lost most of it but my stomach is being stubborn! I work out 5 days a week, weight training and cardio, and I eat a calorie deficit. I even hired a nutritionist but my waist is being stubborn. I want it to be smaller! It's currently about 30 ish inches but pre breast augmentation is was 23! Would lipo be helpful in making my waist smaller? I'm currently about 140 ish. Not prego either.

Answer: Abdominoplasty with mesh reinforcement to reduce waist Of course liposuction can help you to achieve a much better body shape. You can have an hourglass body shape. We can remove the fat from your love handles where there is a reasonable amount of fat, lower abdomen, upper abdomen and may be even lower back, so that you can have a nice body shape. I would suggest, you meet a board certified plastic surgeon near you who can guide you.

Answer: Abdominoplasty with mesh reinforcement to reduce waist The most effective technique to make your waist smaller would be abdominoplasty with mesh reinforcement. The mesh creates a more hourglass figure by compressing the abdominal wall resulting in early satiety and helps maintain a reduced weight. I only perform mesh reinforcement if you are not planning future pregnancies.Best Wishes,Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Answer: Lipo Candidate - VASER HD, J Plasma/Renuvion/Inmode BodyTite tightening, fat grafting for buttock lift/BBL, Cellfina/Sculptra hormonal optimization (seelink), female 360 VASER HD LIPO + internal heating, and fat grafting (if you have any) would give you more curve when used on the hips/buttock. You need a formal evaluation by an expert in body shaping and contouring to determine what is best. Traditional liposuction awake and smart liposuction are old methods and do very poorly for tightening skin or significant skin tightening or contouring. Small problem areas can be improved slightly by these methods. The best in body contouring not only removes fat with energy devices like VASER ultrasound but also internally heat the skin with radio-frequency devices such as J PLASMA/RENUVION, InMode BodyTite, ThermiRF to heat the under surface of the skin and tighten it at the same time as fat removal. These combinations are called 4D HIDEF VASER contouring and can only be done by a well . trained body contouring specialist. At the same time fat should be harvested, PRP and stem cells added and injected into muscles or indentations/cellulite to get body shaping and contouring. This is known as a Brazilian butt lift when you inject the fat to the buttock for contouring and lifting, but fat can also be used in areas such as the chest/breast, arms/shoulders, calves and face. Cellulite should also be treated with cellfina, sculptra, subcision and/or fillers such as bellafill, renuva synthetic fat, or sculptra. If skin is very loose before surgery then it will need to be removed such as lower abdominal skin (tummy tuck/abdominoplasty), breast skin (breast lift), arm skin (brachioplasty). Overall you need a full assessment, but simple liposuction alone will not tighten skin and needs a combination of various methods -- fat removal, skin tightening, defining, fat grafting, skin removal -- to get the best in body contouring and body sculpting.

Answer: Liposuction Hello and thank you for your question. Based on your photograph,s you are a great candidate for waistline contouring liposuction of your abdomen, flanks, and lower back. This can greatly improve your overall shape with a smaller waist. Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and evaluate their results. Best wishes and good luck. Richard G.
