Thank you for your question and photos. You do not give information about height and weight to figure out your BMI. It's best to have a BMI of 30 or less for such extensive surgery. If you were my patient, I would do two surgeries one week apart. This way you would recover at the same time. I view total body rejuvenation in three dimensions and a tummy tuck is part of that process. You have too much fat on the abdomen to do a tummy tuck without extensive liposuction first (upper and lower abdomen, pubic area, anterior and lateral rib cage). With a one stage procedure, the surgeon has to compromise on how much liposuction can be done over the abdomen. Stage 1: VASER Liposuction 360 degrees of the torso, BBL and arm liposuction. Stage 2: one week later, tummy tuck and a breast lift. Based on your photos, 6-8 liters of fat can be removed to give you an hourglass figure with 1.5-2 liters placed back into the buttocks.See a board certified plastic surgeon experienced in advanced body sculpting techniques for an in person consultation/evaluation. Good luck.
Dear Ione916,you should be fully healed before you can get another surgery. Most plastic surgeons will recommend you to wait at least 6 months between abdominal liposuction and tummy tuck. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.
