Tummy tuck vs no tummy tuck when getting lipo? (Photos)

This depends on how much abdominal skin laxity is present. Liposuction can be done to decrease fat but that will create more skin laxity. If skin laxity or excess skin is already present then the only way to remove that skin is with an abdominoplasty. Liposuction is included during an Abdominoplasty procedure so the best results are achieved.

Thank you for the photo. If you have had children, you likely have some degree of muscle separation, or diastasis recti. A tummy tuck is the proper procedure- it removes the excess skin and fat, and tightens the separated abdominal muscles to address the bulge and restore the core. In many surgeons' hands, it includes liposuction at the same time

This is a common dilemma in clinics. A simple guide is , if you have muscle separation and tummy budge is from muscle sedation , you will beed tummy tuck ti fix it. IF the muscle tone is good and only issues are fat under skin then liposuction will give you good results. You can always add Renuvion for some skin tightening as well after liposuction.
