Should I get a 2nd round of liposuction or look towards other procedures to enhance body shape? (Photos)

Question

I had liposuction back in February and I believe it made a big difference but I was hoping it be more body contouring than it turned out. I’m wondering if I go back and get more liposuction or do I look at other procedures such as a tummy tuck or other skin tightening

If there is still residual subcutaneous fat you can consider another round of liposuction with J Plasma which can tighten skin up to 20%.  A tummy tuck would remove excess subcutaneous fat as well as skin laxity.  The result is a tighter, flatter abdomen. It is important to be evaluated by an experienced board certified plastic surgeon for the best recommendation.

Just based on your photos only, I would suggest EMSculpt treatments to help tighten your muscle and decrease inside fat and consider Renuvion for skin tightening. Do the nonsurgical EMSculpt first.

Thank you for the question and posting pictures.  I would definitely recommend liposuction for contouring of your abdomen and around your waistline.   I would also suggest contouring of your pec muscles.   You also appear to be a great candidate for a Tummy Tuck.  Liposuction can give you a nice contour and even a 6-pack if you desire, but it will also make your skin even more loose, so a Tummy tuck would be a good option with the liposuction.

You would definitely benefit from a more thorough liposculpting/Bodytite procedure.  There seems to be a lot of fat that needs to go.  Be  sure to get it done under local rather than general so the doc can stand you up and fine tune it nicely.

Based on your nicely post of photos, I would recommend a second round of Lipo 360 with J plasma for skin tightening. Fee from $8000-$15,000. Best virtual consult with.
