Terix1 Thank you for your question and sharing your photos.  Based on your photo and description, I think you are an excellent candidate for abdomen and flanks liposuction.  I think it can give you a more sculpted waist and more S shaped curve.  I don't think you need a tummy tuck, which would leave a larger scar. You may want to add skin tightening or laser, depending on the current laxity of your skin.

You would definitely benefit from liposuction and a skin tightening procedure such as renuvion or bodytite.  You may even be a candidate for a mini tummy tuck, but it's hard to say without examining you in via video chat or in person.  Don't waste your money on non-invasive treatments like cool sculpting, they won't help you.

Hello; There is both regional fat and skin laxity in your abdomen-waist and back fields. In my opinion, the best solution; for removing fat is Vaserlipo. However, the laxity of your skin will increase; even more after the fat is removed. In order to prevent this; with Vaserlipo; after the fat is deleted, in the same session, laser; Bodytite or Renuvion J Plasma can be applied for skin tightening purposes. Initially, I examine the patient; I choose for one of the above; according to the amount of laxity in patient's skin. If the skin is less and lax, I recommend for laser; if it is very lax; I advise for Renuvion J Plasma technique.

Liposuction alone is a excellent option for contouring your abdominal and waist area together. Liposuction can be combined with one of many different options for skin tightening (ie BodyTite, renuvion etc). To see if you are a suitable candidate for any of those extra skin tightening options, an in person examination is crucial to assess your skin quality and skin elasticity. Hope this helps!

There are many different liposuction machines out there and I have used most of them.  In my opinion, the contour result has Absolutely Nothing to do with which machine is used!   The contour comes down to the surgeons skills and eye for beauty!  It is all about where fat is removed and the shape of what is left behind!  This can be done with any machine out there.  But!  What does vary from machine to machine is the complication rates!   In my opinion, standard Tumescent Liposuction is the best and safest option!  Inject tumescent and suck out the fat.   The machines that introduce power, such as Laser and Ultrasound do make it easier for the surgeon, but they also cause a lot of heating of the tissues and burning of the tissues, which in turn causes more scaring.   I perform a lot of re-do liposuction from some of the local docs and plastic surgery chains who frequently promote these machines because they sound High Tech.   Unfortunately, correcting bad results when these laser or ultrasound liposuction machines are used, is Very tough!

It pretty much doesn’t matter how active and aware about the nutritional needs a person is, but their genetics take over. The excessive fat in the flank and abdominal area can only be reduced by means of liposuction. Laser liposuction is no longer being used as it poses risks and way too many of them. In the majority of cases, traditional or power assist liposuction should be your choice. Find a plastic surgeon near you. Who is successful at these procedures. I hope this helps and good Lock from Dr. Leonard Grossman organic Plastic Surgery. P.S. the photograph of the individual whom I did have laser liposuction in 2002. I have since stopped performing this risky procedure.
