Answer: Your tummy I think that based upon your picture you would still get a lot of improvement from a tummy tuck. I tell people in the office that we start with you and while we can change you to an arguably better version of you we cannot change you to someone else. That being said you would have a lot of skin tightened.Good Luck!

Answer: Visceral Fat and an Abdominoplasty Thank you for your question and for attaching photos. An abdominoplasty with some flank liposuction would get rid of the excess skin, tighten your abdominal muscles and smooth out the "love handle" area. This being said, you do have some visceral fat that is around the organs that we cannot get to with an abdominoplasty or lipo. This fat can only be reduced by diet and exercise. It really comes down to your expectations. An abdominoplasty with some lipo will make you look better, but it will not get you a flat stomach without a significant amount of work on your part with diet and exercise. If you are expecting a flat stomach, you will not be happy. If your expectations to remove the excess skin and some fat are realistic, you should do well. I wish you the best.

Answer: Tummy tuck You likely have visceral fat, but a tummy tuck with liposuction and tightening of the muscle will make a dramatic change. Consult with a board certified plastic surgery with experience in these procedures.
