I am curious about whether I predominantly have subcutaneous fat or visceral fat. Since I can move and pinch the fat, I assume it's mostly subcutaneous. For individuals with a body type like mine, is it still preferable to reach a BMI below 30 for tummy tuck and 360 lipo, or could I now be a candidate now and expect good results?
