You need a formal evaluation by an expert in body shaping and contouring to determine what is best. The best in body contouring not only removes fat with energy devices like VASER ultrasound but also internally heats the skin with radiofrequency devices such as Renuvion (J-Plasma), InMode BodyTite, and ThermiRF to heat the undersurface of the skin and tighten it at the same time as fat removal. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer.
Dear As0670514,based on your photos, you look like a good candidate for a TT. Full tummy tuck should tighten your abdominal muscles and remove the excess skin. Flanks liposuction would give you a better shape. I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon because only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.Daniel Barrett, MDCertified, American Board of Plastic SurgeryMember, American Society of Plastic SurgeryMember, American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery
Yes- laser liposuction will address stomach and public fat. It will also tighten skin.Liposuction will remove fat under the skin which is pinchable - it will not remove internal fat, deep inside the belly which you do not appear to have.An exam and consultation with a plastic surgeon who performs these procedures is recommended to confirm you are a candidate as well as discuss your options and expectations.
Vaser lipo It is a procedure that could help you improve the accumulations of fat in your abdomen and pubic area. Less pain, less inflammation and less bleeding.In your photos I see a belly that gives an appearance of greater intra-abdominal fat. If this is your case, with lipo, be it vaser or conventional, you will not be able to solve your problem.
In the photographs it appears that you may have a lot of visceral fat which is causing the protruding of your abdomen. It also appears that you may have some extra fat in the flank/love handle area. External laser Treatments are not going to reduce the fat to the extent you desire. You need to be evaluated by a plastic surgeon to determine if liposuction is right for you. I hope this helps and good luck from New York City Plastic Surgery
Dear NY,This is a great question that I get asked on a daily basis!Is liposuction enough?Sometimes liposuction is enough, and sometimes you need additional skin tightening technologies like Renuvion jplasma or even skin removal.A younger person, with healthy skin void of stretch marks tends to get away with less invasive treatments for great results.Best.

Hi and welcome to our forum!From your photos, I note significant fullness of the abdomen with minimal fullness of the flanks. There is no hanging pannus.Abdominal fullness may be due to superficial fat accumulation between skin and muscle or deep (visceral) fat accumulation around your internal organs. The former can be laser liposuctioned. The latter requires a regimen of diet and exercise. A physical examination is required to differentiate.Visit a board certified plastic surgeon for evaluation and discussion.Best wishes...
Liposuction is a body sculpting procedure which removes a few pounds of fat. The amount of fat removed with liposuction does not have a significant impact on your total body weight. Liposuction sculpts an area of the body for arms , legs or abdomen and the changes in that area are analogous to ...

Gentle, Thank you for your question and sharing your photos. It is a great question that comes up almost daily. From your photos, I can see a roll at the bottom of your abdomen. You can get a good to excellent result with liposuction on your abdomen. However, there is a chance you will still...

No vaser alone will not help you at all. you need vaser, renuvion and a tummy tuck/body lift. you have a lot of loose skin. my whole practice is doing lipoabdominoplasty, or at least liposuction with internal heating (which is not the gold standard for skin tightening with body contouring)...
