27 years old, am I a good candidate for tummy liposuction? (photos)

Hello and thank you for your question!
You appear to be a good candidate for liposuction. Schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss your options. Best wishes!

Thank you for your question and the provided images. After a preliminary analysis, it seems the primary concern is not excess fat but a weakness in the rectus abdominis muscles from the belly button to the sternum.
Your skin appears healthy, with no visible stretch marks, and there is minimal fat above the muscle. Liposuction generally addresses subcutaneous fat, but it won’t resolve muscle weakness. A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, is typically recommended to correct weakened abdominal muscles effectively.
Given your specific condition, a tummy tuck would likely offer optimal results. If this is not an option you want to consider, I'd advise against undergoing liposuction alone as it may not provide the desired outcome due to the muscular concern.
I am available to discuss this further to address any more queries or concerns you might have.
Sincerely,
Haley

You would be a great candidate for Vaser liposuction of the abdomen. Vaser liposuction uses ultrasound and heat to stimulate collagen production and tighten areas the fat is being removed. Would love to see you for consultation here at Smith Plastic Surgery.

"Based on your description and the pictures you provided, it sounds like you could be a good candidate for liposuction. This procedure can help to remove stubborn pockets of fat and contour your body more to your liking. Given your age and the fact that you're fairly slim, the risk of significant loose skin post-liposuction may be less. Adding Renuvion to your liposuction could be a great addition to help with potential skin laxity and give your better long-lasting results.

Dear Thrifty757791,
Thank you for your question! Have you had any children? If not, I believe you would be a great candidate for liposuction + renuvion to help tighten the skin. I do this commonly for my patients who have photos like yours. The renuvion/j-plasma will help tighten that skin after the liposuction. I recommend an in person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon who specializes in liposuction, body contouring and has advanced treatment modalities such as renuvion/j-plasma.

You are the ideal candidate for high definition liposuction which utilizes VASER liposuction and Renuvion J plasma to ensure that you remove all of your fat and eliminate any skin laxity. Following high definition protocols, you will be assured the ultimate 360 degree body contour that will make you standout. You will appreciate natural shadows, have the perfect female sillhouette, and even unveil muscle highlights if you work out. Please consider a virtual consultation with a high defintion liposuction specialist.

Thanks for your question. From your pictures, it doesn't appear that you have excess hanging skin, which is addressed with a tummy tuck. Therefore, 360 lipo may be your best option. 360 lipo includes lipo of the upper and lower abdomen, the upper and lower back and the flanks. I recommend you schedule a consult for a proper evaluation. Make sure the surgeon you choose has extensive experience and clean credentials. Always consult with a board certified plastic surgeon. Take care, Moises Salama MD, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

You have a pocket of fat on your lower abdomen that doesn't change with weight loss. You are at a healthy weight.
At your age, having had no major weight loss or pregnancies, loose skin from liposuction is unlikely.
You are an excellent candidate for liposuction of the lower abdomen.

Thanks for your questions dear @Thrifty757791
With 27 years old you have a very good skin elasticity and more if you have exercises habits. Please get a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon and have all your other questions respond, but definitely you do not need a tummy tuck procedure, with a liposuction procedure you will be getting the flat abdomen you have been looking for.
Good luck!

Hello @Thrifty757791, thank you for your question. You can achieve a great result with liposuction, no need for tummy tuck as there is no excess skin or diathesis. However, Liposculture is a much better option than segmented liposuction for patients who are looking to achieve long lasting results. It gets better results because it enhances the contours of the body. It also improves proportionality across the body. However does not alter bone structure. In order to improve proportion, it is possible to remove fat accumulations that do not correspond with the symmetry of the body. Thanks to the latest surgical techniques and technologies, we can achieve an outstanding result. Here is a video that sheds more light on the topic. For more information and recommendations is best to consult with one or several board certified plastic surgeons. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS.
