Do I need tummy tuck together with Vaser & does Vaser tighten skin? (Photos)

Thank you so much for your question.
Based on your pictures I will recommend you to have liposuction with J-plasma procedure, you do not look like a candidate for tummy tuck. Have a physical consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon.

Hope this help

Thank you for your question regarding combining Vaser liposuction with a tummy tuck. While it is possible to combine the two procedures, it is important to note that it can be tricky and risky. During a tummy tuck, the blood flow to the abdominal skin and tissue is altered, and combining this with liposuction can further affect blood flow and increase the risk of complications. Only certain areas can be safely liposuctioned in conjunction with a tummy tuck, such as the flanks. This is done to avoid constriction of blood flow to the incision, which can result in the skin around the incision dying. Therefore, I would recommend liposuction of the flanks in conjunction with the tummy tuck. However, I would caution against extensive liposuction in other areas of the abdomen during the tummy tuck procedure. It is important to discuss your goals and expectations with an experienced board-certified plastic surgeon to determine the best approach for achieving your desired results while minimizing risks and complications. Thank you for your question, and I wish you the best of luck.

Sincerely, Dr. Katzen.

Your photos don't show you side views, but I would start with liposuction to remove the excess fat. Vaser will help tighten skin, but neither treat a weak muscle.
