Petite -- am I a candidate for saddlebag liposuction? (Photo)

Hello,
And thank you for the question.
Based on your photos, you are in a very good shape with very minimal fat excess.
Liposuction of saddle bag area can be performed to create a more smooth outer thigh contour.
I suggest that you seek an in person consultation with a Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon to further discuss your options, specific techniques, concerns and expectations.
I hope this helps.Good luck!

Laser liposuction is good for problem areas of fat, but lacks body shaping. The best in body contouring not only removes fat with energy devices like VASER ultrasound but also internally heats the skin with radiofrequency devices such as Renuvion (J-Plasma), InMode BodyTite, and ThermiRF to heat the undersurface of the skin and tighten it at the same time as fat removal. These combinations are called 4D HI-DEF VASER Liposuction and can only be done by a well-trained body contouring specialist. At the same time, fat should be harvested and purified, with PRP and stem cells added, and then injected into muscles, indentations and cellulite to get body shaping and contouring.

Overall, you need a full assessment, but simple liposuction alone will not tighten skin and needs a combination of various methods -- fat removal, skin tightening, defining, fat grafting, skin removal -- to get the best in body contouring and body sculpting. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer.

Thanks for your question. You seem to have a lean figure, not too much fat stored. But what possibly can be done is to do Vaser Liposuction for a defined abdomen. And the fat can be used to get rid of the cellulite. It won't give you a volume but can smooth it out. Having a consultation with a Board Certified Surgeon is advised.

Thank you for your question. your are a candidate for liposuction in your stomach. I would suggest to be treated by board certified plastic surgeon with experience in this procedure, to get the best desired results.

Kind regards,
Dr. Emmanuel Mallol Cotes.-

Liposuction can be performed on small areas that you find unsatisfactory. This is done on an out-patient basis, takes less than 1 hour and costs $3,000.

Best Wishes,
