Am I a candidate for liposuction post pregnancy? I’m 4 months post partum from an emergency c section and wanting liposuction on my lower stomach when I’m 6 months post partum. I’ve been for a consultation and was told my only option is a tummy tuck which just seems so extreme to me as I don’t have any loose skin or diastasis recti. It’s really disheartened me as I definitely do not want a tummy tuck but I did want liposuction to give me a boost of confidence since being pregnant
Answer: Candidate for liposuction post-pregnancy Thanks so much for your question, If your skin has good elasticity and isn’t sagging, lipo alone may work well without the need for skin removal and since you don’t have muscle separation, that’s a good sign that lipo could be effective. Not all surgeons have the same approach. A more experienced lipo specialist might be willing to do it if you’re a good candidate. I would suggest to be treated by board certified plastic surgeon with experience in this procedure, to get the best desired results. Respectfully, Dr. Emmanuel Mallol Cotes.-

Answer: Liposuction Yes from the photos you appear to be a candidate for liposuction to help sculpt your curves. You mentioned you are going to wait until you are six months post partum which is the recommendation. If you are planning to have more children in the future a tummy tuck is not advised until after you've completed your family.

Answer: Liposuction You can have liposuction, but I would wait at least 2 months more so that you are returned to a normal weight and your hormones are back to normal. If you are breast feeding, then you will need to wait even longer. You can tone that muscle with nonsurgical EMSculpt if you wish.

Answer: About your concern .. Hello Honestly, looking at the photos, I don't understand why you would need a tummy tuck. A tummy tuck is typically recommended for issues like sagging in the lower abdomen, severe stretch marks, or separation of the abdominal muscles, but none of these seem to be the case for you.

Answer: Thank you for your question! It is difficult to see just through the pictures, however, on the side picture, I can’t see a bit of separation of the muscles due to the pregnancy. It would be best to send additional footage to buyer see the condition of the skin if it’s more so on the loose side a tummy top would definitely be the surgery to benefit you more. Otherwise you can be left with irregularities however, if the skin has retracted mostly on its own perhaps liposuction with j plasma would suit you best!
