I had an abdominoplasty back in 2015, I really thought we weren't going to have more children. But then last year we added one more member to our family. I don't want to go through the recovery of another abdominoplasty, it was extremely difficult both mentally and physically. I've been doing exercise but the extra fat on my sides and belly is not coming off. I've been thinking of getting a Lipo and perhaps have some fat transfer to butt. Would I be a good candidate for this? I'm not sure...
Answer: Liposuction Thank you for your question and congratulations on the baby. I think your a great candidate for liposuction. It will help contour the love handle area, reduce down the abdomen area and help with the overall shape. I would suggest a laser assisted liposuction to help with the skin retraction. I would also recommend speaking with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon in person to evaluate you and discuss your options. Best of luck to you.

Answer: Considering procedures From your photos it appears you are a good candidate for liposuction. This would address the fuller areas that concern you. An in person examination is always best, but it doesn't appear you have much skin laxity, so the liposuction should be sufficient for a nice improvement. See a board certified plastic surgeon near you to learn more.

Answer: BBL Liposuction After Tummy Tuck Pregnancy Brazillian Butt Lift Fat Transfer to Buttock Thank you for your question regarding if you were a good candidate for liposuction after a previous tummy tuck and pregnancy. By examining your photos, it looks like you have excess fat and not much excess skin. Therefore, I think you’d be a great candidate for liposuction. You may notice a bit of loose abdominal skin after your tummy tuck, but if you wear your compression garment as advised by your plastic surgeon, your stomach will likely snap back with the help of the muscle plication that was performed previously (during the tummy tuck). I think your butt would accept the fat very well, and you would be very happy with your results. Sincerely, Dr. Katzen.

Answer: Liposuction of abdomen, flanks, lower back (lipo 360) Based on these photos, it is very likely that aggressive liposuction of abdomen, flanks and lower back with moderate weight loss, would create desired improvement. Good luck.
