Hi, i'm looking to get liposuction on my abdominal area and love handles only i'm wondering if this would be considered a 360 lipo procedure? At the same time I want to have dermal fillers such as using the sculptra technique for my hip dips only. not the buttocks, and could these two procedure be done together?

You will need an abdominoplasty without skin resection. The abdominoplasty will separate your skin from the underlying fascia and will smooth out some of the irregularities.
