Post-Baby, Can I Do Liposuction or Do I Need a Tummy Tuck?

You will not be satisfied with liposuction only to contour you belly. After 3 pregnancies, your abdominal wall is strectched out, the sit-up muscles are likely seperated and the bulging you see is NOT just extra fat. A tummy tuck in addition to lipo-contouring will give you the best result:


Flat tummy and better belly button shape

Gets rid of many stretch marks and extra roll of skin that you see when you sit

Realigns the muscles, which may also help your core feel stronger - a real bonus when you have an active lifestsyle!

Simultaneous liposuction will shape your hips and waist for a really smooth look


Still too early to do this, though. Wait at least 3 months to allow your body to recover forn delivery and to get back to your pre-pregnancy weight. Remember to choose a plastic surgeon who is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. Good luck!

 Greetings,

You're a perfect candidate for a tummy tuck. Your photos reveals looseness of the abdominal wall muscles, excess skin and fat, and stretch marks. Liposuction would ultimately give you the appearance of having more loose skin and a residual abdominal bulge.

Let's face it: if every patient had a choice, they would avoud the incisions and downtime associated with a tummy tuck. That being said, for your constellation of physical findings, it will certainly give you the best results.

Hope this helps. Best of luck.
