I’m 28, 5’5 and workout 5 days a week. I have one child. I want to fix my stomach but don’t want the scar that comes with a tummy tuck or mini tuck. Will liposuction on the abdomen give me a nice flat stomach or will it make things worse? I had cool sculpting 3 years ago.

Answer: Liposuction abdomen Liposuction will help contour and flatten your abdomen. Liposuction will not make your skin tight, however and so while it may reduce the bulge it will not make your tummy as flat and tight as it once may have been. If this is acceptable to you, then liposuction may be a very good procedure for you as it will avoid the scar that a tummy tuck leaves. At a consultation a surgeon will examine you including your skin laxity to determine for certain whether liposuction will meet your goals. All the best to you, Dr. Nancy de Kleer

Answer: Liposuction candidate Dear Sensible804138, it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. Based on your photos, it looks like you would benefit from liposuction. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.
