I am looking to have liposuction of belly, waist, lower back, upper back, arms and tummy tuck surgery with breast reduction surgery plus breast lift. I have been trying to lose weight for years and after 2 kids both via c-sections, I haven’t been able to lose beyond my current weight and I have tried every diet possible. Currently work out at the gym 5 days a week ( 1.5hrs - 2hrs each day ) and all I still struggle to shift the weight and I am on a strict diet as well. My BMI is around 37.5.

Answer: Selecting procedures It appears you would enjoy the benefits of the procedures you are considering. Typically surgeons will limit elective plastic surgery to 6 hours or less. Please note that liposuction does a great job at removing excess fat, however it does not address loose skin. Because of this you may want to consider an arm lift versus liposuction to that area. You will want to be at a stable body weight with a BMI of under 30 in order to keep your risk profile low.

Answer: Looking for a mummy makeover? Thank you for the question and pictures. Based on your photographs, you will likely be an excellent candidate for breast lifting and tummy tuck surgery at some point.Generally speaking, it is always best to achieve long-term stable weight prior to proceeding with body contouring surgery. Doing so, will increase the safety of the operation, will likely improve the outcome of the operation, and will decrease chances that additional surgery will become necessary subsequently. In my practice, I do not ask specific patients to achieve a specific weight prior to proceeding with tummy tuck surgery. I simply ask patients to achieve a long-term stable weight where he/she feels comfortable and does not expect significant fluctuation postoperatively. As you know, recruiting other professionals such as personal trainers, nutritionists, physicians who specialize in weight loss concerns etc. may be helpful to you. Best wishes.

Answer: Body contouring surgeries It would be ideal to have your weight closer to a BMI of 30 before considering these type of extensive surgeries. To get the best results it is likely to take 3-4 procedures. I would not combine the full list of procedures that you have. Possibilities in my hands would be 1. Bodylift 2. Breast reduction (& possibly some abdominal revision required) 3. Upper back lift + Brachioplasty. Liposuction of all the areas you have listed is going to cause the skin appearance to worsen as you already have loose skin - this would need to be excised. Be sure to see an experienced surgeon and make a long term plan of goals & procedures depending on your priorities. All the best
