Answer: Liposuction vs. tummy tuck in 22 year old Your breast scars will provide a good clue as to what scars you should expect from a tummy tuck. If you can accept the scars, a tummy tuck will give you the best shape and skin tone. Liposuction is still a good option, but even if your skin shrinks well there will be no opportunity to improve your abdominal wall shape as could be obtained through a tummy tuck.Good Luck!

Answer: Liposuction Hello and thank you for your question. Based on your photograph, you are a great candidate for waistline contouring liposuction of your abdomen, flanks, and upper/lower back. This can greatly improve your overall shape with a smaller waist. Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and evaluate their results. The most important aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person.
