39 y/o T1 diabetic. In pic- removable Insulin pump and continuous glucose monitor on stomach. 5 csections. Desires: Legs: Slim without dimples/cellulite having a good shape particularly around the knees. Tighten loose skin around thighs/knees from pregnancy complication. Thigh gap would be a bonus. Stomach/hips: removed fat- especially around hips, slim smooth "hourglass" shape. Neck/Chin: No more double chin, or old lady neck Eyes: Get rid of dark circles and crows feet
Answer: Safety as priority You must understand that your health condition will be the most powerful reason why the surgeries you are interested in, must be staged. You have a beautiful body shape already, so nice results would be a reality for you. Because of the saggy skin and loose muscle on your abdomen you are a perfect candidate for Tummy tuck and muscle repair and also some liposuction to waist and lovehandles. Your thighs because of your age, and your genetics have become saggy and no surgery will Make them tight and firm and smooth. So you may get some liposuction just to reduce volume. Regarding your face: your neck is saggy and will need Neck lift. Dark circles may need fat grafting. So all of the procedures should not be done all together. Be encouraged. Your safety is priority. Dr. Cárdenas

Answer: Multiple procedures Dear mjmmfinally, I understand your concern. It is best however that you consult with a board certified plastic surgeon to determine whether you can have several aesthetic surgeries in one session, as this would depend on various factors including but not limited to your general health condition, the type of anesthesia that will be used, and the type of surgeries that will be performed among others.

Answer: High definition vaser liposuction From the pictures you provided it looks like you would benefit from high definition vaser liposuction. That being said, you would benefit from a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon in order to properly address your goals. You may need a skin tuck procedure to properly deal with the redundant skin that may result from liposuction. The Gold Standard for superior liposuction results requires use of the advanced technology of ultrasound assisted VASER liposuction. As an official trainer of VASER liposuction, I perform full body liposuction cases every week. VASER liposuction has been the only modality that has consistently resulted in outstanding liposuction outcomes. VASER liposuction ensures a smooth contour regardless of degree of excess fat by virtue of being able to remove any and all remaining fat comprehensively and uniformly. If skin redundancy is observed, Renuvion technology can be simultaneously applied to tighten your skin to optimize your overall contour outcome. A Skype or FaceTime consultation with a VASER specialist will help you get an accurate recommendation and pricing. Respectfully, Arian Mowlavi MD, FACS Realself 100 Hall of Fame Inductee
