Answer: Tummy Tuck versus Vaser
Hello Some.one,
Based on your height and weight, your BMI or body-mass index is 47. People who are above a BMI of 30 have a much higher incidence of complications after liposuction or abdominoplasty, and in general, you are at a higher risk of illness or death at that weight. Additionally, the results of any plastic surgery procedure would be enhanced and your satisfaction increased if performed at or below a BMI of 30.
Looking at your pictures, you have both upper and lower abdominal skin laxity and redundancy. This will only increase with weight loss, unfortunately. You would therefore benefit much more from a formal tummy tuck and liposuction as opposed to Vaser liposuction alone. There is no clinical evidence that Vaser, ultrasound, or laser assisted liposuction is better than traditional liposuction, regardless of glowing appraisals from advertisements, doctors who have these machines, or heresay from the public.
Best of luck!

Answer: Tummy Tuck or Vaser Lipo
Once you have reached your long term stable weight, a better determination of the appropriate procedure can be provded. At this time, the indication is for a tummy tuck. Once you reach your target weight, consult with 3 - 4 experienced and expert board certified plastic surgeons.
