I am in my early 40's, live a healthy lifestyle and have muscle definition. I'm looking for a procedure that can address abdominal fat efficiently due to busy schedule. 5'7'', 132lbs, BMI 21. No health conditions.
Answer: Other Options While liposuction is your best treatment option for definitive results, there are a few other treatments that might work, although they are far less precise or efficient. Cryolipolysis (Coolsculpting) can target fat in the distribution of a paddle that is sized for the area. However, it doesn't treat anywhere outside the paddle applicator, often requires 3-4 treatments, and has the possibility of paradoxical adipose hyperplasia (PAH) where the fat actually grows rather than shrinks. The other potential treatment is chemical lipolysis (Kybella) although it is critical to know that this is off-label, as it is currently only indicated for submental (neck) fat. For both of these treatments, the downtime and the recovery are substantial, and often moreso than they are for liposuction in a thinner, fit patient. For these reasons, I would encourage you to look into liposuction more, as the results and downtime seem to lean in its favor for what you are looking to achieve.

Answer: Lipo alternative Hello emilyrose235 and thank you for your question! Given your healthy lifestyle, muscle definition, and low BMI, you might be an excellent candidate for CoolSculpting as a non-surgical alternative to liposuction. CoolSculpting uses controlled cooling to target and eliminate stubborn fat cells without downtime, making it a great option for those with a busy schedule.

Answer: Important Points Hello; It's not about getting fat; essentially, after fat removal; it is significant whether skin laxity will occur or not. If skin laxity will not happen, PAL (power assisted Liposuction) or Vaserlipo is sufficient. However, if skin laxity will become, methods; in order to eliminate the skin laxity such as Bodytite or Renuvion J plasma should also be implemented.

Answer: Laser Liposuction or Liposuction with Renuvion to get the best definition Emily Rose, Thank you for sharing your photos. Noninvasive options such as Coolsculpting or Cutaneous Laser are just not that effective and would be a waste of your money. Laser Liposuction or Liposuction with Renuvion [Plasma Liposuction] will give you the most definition. If this procedure is done with Local Tumescent Liposuction you can go to work the next day.

Answer: Liposuction question You must definitely can have liposuction of the abdominal and flank area. Make sure you go to Plastic surgeon who gets good results not just promises you them. Do some background research. A well performed liposuction should produce improve for portions and leave your skin as tight as it is at this point in time. I hope this helps and good luck from New York City Plastic Surgery.
