I have lots of belly fat, Can smart Lipo be used to jumpstart weight loss?

It is very difficult to advise without pictures or seeing you in person.The key to liposuction is
your skin elasticity. If the skin tone is good then liposuction which removes
the fat will allow skin the shrink up. If the skin is loose liposuction
simply makes it looser.

You must consider your overall body weight.
Too much lipo suction can be dangerous.
if you continue to lose weight the skin will get
looser and you will be an even better candidate for skin tightening procedures
but your surgical risks will diminish.

I would recommend you consult with a
board-certified plastic surgeon to begin a healthy diet and exercise regimen
with an eye towards the appropriate procedures when you have accomplished your
diet and weight loss goals. In my opinion this would be the safest way to go.

I recommend you see a board certified PS first for a physical assessment. Sometimes, the bloated pregnant look may actually be caused by separated abdominal muscles. This can only be corrected with a tummy tuck. If, however, you do have excess fat, then liposuction might work but it's best to be at your idea weight first, and have it be stable. It improves the safety of the surgery.

The real issue is how much of your belly fat is between the skin and your muscle, which the Smart Lipo can get to, and how much is inside of your abdomen. That fat is not treatable with any liposuction technique. Your surgeon should be able to examine you and give you an idea of where you fall.
