Female, 38, 5’5, 153lbs - recently lost over 100lbs, BodyTite or tummy tuck? (Photos)

Anything IMHO other than surgery is a waste of your money. See a well respected plastic surgeon in your area. Good luck and congratulations on your weight loss!

Thank you for your questions and photos. From your photos, you are a good candidate for a tummy tuck with liposuction. A tummy tuck will address excess skin & repair of the abdominal muscle. The abdominal wall can be weakened after pregnancy and (or) significant weight gain & loss. By repairing the muscle, not only does the appearance of your abdominal area improve, but your core strength as well. The repair of the muscle will cinch your waist like an inner corset, which will accentuate your curves. Liposuction will remove excess fat from unwanted areas with some skin retraction. Your expectations and health will dictate the best procedure(s) for you. I suggest a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to go over the options that best address your goals. Best of luck!

Congratulations on your amazing transformation. It is true that these nonsurgical techniques may help with some of your concerns, but i do not think they will give you your desired result. Because of your amazing weight loss, however, I feel that you always have excess skin. My recommendation would be a full abdominoplasty. Score is usually well hidden within the bikini line. We will abdominoplasty may be more costly than any 1 nonsurgical procedure, the combination of Nonsurgical procedures and need for more likely surpass the cost of an abdominoplasty.
