I know I prob need a tummy tuck but I plan on have more kids within 4 years. My goal is too look good with clothes on/ not necessarily to look amazing in 2 piece. I understand I will have wrinkled skin. I only ask if I will have attainable snatched waist with lipo 360 alone because some PS have said they won't touch me if I don't get a TT. I need advice please

Answer: Could I get away with lipo 360 alone for a snatched waist without a tummy tuck? Hello,Liposuction alone is not the ideal procedure for you as you appear to have skin laxity and some abdominal distension. These findings will not be improved with liposuction alone, and in fact the skin laxity may worsen. The abdominal distension is either due to visceral fat which is only improved with weight loss, or muscle separation from pregnancy which requires surgical repair via tummy tuck.That being said, you can undergo liposuction knowing and accepting that your results will be modest (no snatch waist) and that a second staged procedure after you are done with childbearing would be beneficial. Reaching a healthy BMI is of course recommended before any elective plastic surgery.Warm regards,Dr. Pedy Ganchi Village Plastic Surgery

Answer: Lipo alone vs. tt and lipo Based on your photos you do seem to have loose skin and likely have separation of the abdominal muscles (rectus diastasis). These two problems cant be fixed with liposuction alone. You would need a tummy tuck with muscle repair to address these problems. Lipsuction will remove any fat you can pinch below the skin but will not affect anything below the muscle layer and will not fix muscles or loose skin. You could undergo liposuction but I would recommend waiting until you are done having children and undergoing one larger procedure with lipo and a tt at the same time. Good luck and thanks for the question.
