Tummy Tuck or Body Lift? (Photo)

August 16, 2024
Asked By:Brave427239 in Louisville, Kentucky

I'm a 36-year-old man who has lost 110 pounds over the past two years. I'm now considering gynecomastia surgery and a tummy tuck to address excess skin. The plastic surgeon I've chosen has proposed two options for the torso: a traditional tummy tuck with liposuction on the back flanks (his recommendation), or body lift. I'm looking for a second opinion on which direction I should take. My main concern is making sure my back and sides match my front as best as possible.
