This how my stomach looks at various weight points. I battled type 1 obesity most of my life. What stomach I have that give my stomach a slightly hang apron like appearance? Is A: Pannus? Panniculus Type 1? Abdominal flaccidity? Diastasis Recti? Can Laser Lipo address the issues or I wil have loose skin that I will nee a tummy tuck? What type of tummy tuck is recommend if I need such?
Answer: Laser Liposuction can give you are good result Diana, thank you for sharing your photos. From your photos I don't see any signs of abdominal flaccidity or diastasis recti. You appear to have normal torso and I would not describe the small roll on your lower abdomen as a pannus. I think you are a good candidate for a good result with Laser Liposuction. Wishing you the best.

Answer: What is my stomach type and do I need a tummy tuck? Can this be addressed with laser liposuction alone? Hello @DianaJ89, thank you for your question. Yes for best result you need a Tummy tuck because there is an excess of skin. There are 4 factors that are taking into account when it comes to the abdomen shape: Lax skin, diastasis recti, fat under the skin and intra abdominal fat. The first two are treated with a tummy tuck and the latter with lipolysis made with liposuction. It is important that you have a consultation with a board certified specialist to determine a surgical plan according to your needs. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS. Best wishes!

Answer: Liposuction VS Tummy Tuck The best thing to give you a right answer is having a consultation, so a physical exam is done as well as the photos. Other thing must be assessed, is the medical history and the most important of those is if you have been pregnant, that is the main factor that causes a Diastasis Recti. In my experience the best results for a patients that's had a pregnancy is doing a Lipoabdominoplasty or Liposuction + Tummy tuck, so you can do the muscle repair, get rid of the extra skin and also the body contouring with the Liposuction. And if you have not been pregnant I would advice you have a Liposuction using technology to have the best results possible, that is using a Ultrasound instead of Laser (Vaser), Power Asissted Liposuction (Microaire), and a Radiofrequency technology (Renuvion-JPlasma or Inmode-Bodytite). Everything we have at our disposal to look for your best results.

Answer: Tummy tuck versus laser Liposuction Thank you for your question. By looking at your pictures, you seem to be a great candidate for laser liposuction done under tumescent anesthesia.. Although you have a bulge in your lower abdomen, it looks like you have a good skin quality and would respond well to fat removal and collagen stimulation. Good luck on your journey.
