Answer: Treatment to address skin laxity and excess fat Thank you for your question. From your description, it seems the issue you're facing might not be cellulite, but rather loose or excess skin, which is common post-pregnancy and can give a similar appearance to cellulite. A minimally invasive skin tightening procedure might be beneficial if the looseness is minimal. If the laxity is more significant, a surgical procedure such as a tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) combined with liposuction might be more suitable. This can remove the excess skin and fat, and tighten the underlying abdominal muscles, helping to achieve a smoother, flatter appearance and potentially more toned look in the lower abdomen. Consulting with a board-certified plastic surgeon to discuss these options and find the most appropriate treatment plan for you.

Answer: Upper Abdomen Cellulie Thank you for your question regarding how to treat your upper abdomen cellulite five years after childbirth. Thank you for your history, and thank you for your pictures. In terms of treating your abdomen, I would suggest two treatments, Morpheus8 and VASER abdominal liposuction. Morpheus8 is an in-office procedure on the skin. You may need three or more treatments for definitive results. The benefit of Morpheus8 is that there is minimal downtime. The disadvantage of Morhpeus8 is that you may need three or more treatments. The more definitive treatment would be VASER liposuction. This would definitely remove excess fat and can help sculpt the anterior abdomen muscles. The VASER hi-def liposuction can sculpt muscles and give you more muscle definition. VASER abdominal liposuction takes about 3 hours under general anesthesia. Please give yourself about two weeks for recovery. I think you would get phenomenal results using VASER hi-def abdominal liposuction. Thank you for your question regarding how to treat your upper abdomen cellulite five years after childbirth. Sincerely, Dr. Katzen
