Answer: Lipo on Thin Stretched Skin Thank you for allowing me to answer your question. It appears from your picture that you have thin, loose skin with not much fatty tissue underneath. In these cases liposuction alone is unlikely to give you a result you will be happy with and abdominoplasty with liposuction and tightening of the abdominal muscles will give a better result. It is important to seek consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon who can examine you and give you the proper guidance.

Answer: Abdominoplasty Candidate? Liposuction will only remove fat; it will not tighten the skin. If you take air out of a balloon, the balloon envelope will get wrinkled. This is the same affect on the abdominal skin.You may be better off waiting to have an abdominoplasty to tighten the abdominal wall muscles and skin, while removing the fat in the lower abdomen. You will have less stretch marks and you will have a tight abdomen. The total cost of surgery is $6000, which includes the Board Certified Professional fee, Board Certified Anesthesia fee, and Medicare Approved Surgicenter fee.Hope this helps.
