I've been recently diagnosed with PCOS, which causes insulin resistance. This has caused me to gain weight, specifically in the waist, and has given me a terrible apple shape. I have been dieting and exercising and have lost 20 lbs thus far, and I plan to lose another 25-30 by next year. I want to get my waist shaped as a college graduation gift to myself next year. I was wondering what procedure/s would be best. I'd like to have a tiny but tighter tummy still, as shown in the photos.
Answer: Liposuction for plus size women many plus size women have extremely difficult time loosing weight due to multiple metabolic disorders. I have had nearly 20 years experience with large volume liposuction for plus size women. I have had many patients that went from a size 18 to a 10. If you have been able to maintain your weight and continue with a healthy lifestyle, large volume liposuction will change your body and life.

Answer: Reduce waste size Best treatment would be to continue your weight loss until your BMI is in the 27-29 range at least, then you can consider plastic surgery treatments.

Answer: Can I get a tighter waist with weight loss and plastic surgery? Hi Ashley, Let me first congratulate you on the high goals that you are setting for yourself. It requires a lot of self discipline and sacrifice. Regular excercise and eliminating carbohydrates will help your shape and your insulin resistance. The more you loose the better results you can get. After you have lost the weight, you need to consult with an experienced board certified plastic surgeon to evaluate the residual fatty tissue and the extent of skin looseness. One might be able to help you with liposuction alone or you might benefit from a combination of tummy tuck and liposuction to get the optimal results. I wish you the best and please keep at it.

Answer: Looking to reduce waist size. Best procedures for this? Thank you for your question. Based on your information and photos I think that you are a good candidate for tummy tuck and liposuction to the waist and back to optimize your overall shape. Our central approach with these procedures is to provide a 360 degree improvement in order to get a beautiful flat abdomen, and to maximize feminine curves. For the abdomen a tummy tuck will flatten the abdomen, cinch in the waist, and remove excess fat and skin from the lower abdomen. Liposuction to the back and waist will give you a lean appearance and accentuate the hour glass figure. You definitely have to choose your surgeon correctly and make sure that he/she has the training and experience to meet your goals with absolute safety. Don’t settle for less than a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon with specialized expertise in this procedure.

Answer: Waist contouring Your surgical approach would depend on results after your weight comes off. Sometimes the skin and/or muscle is sagging and a tummy tuck may provide the best approach. More commonly you would likely do really well with Liposuction. You should consult with a board certified plastic surgeon for an evaluation. You can find one near you at plasticsurgery.org.
