I’m 5’7, 145lb, 44 yo female. I’ve had two children and have lost about 100lbs. I’m nervous about the recovery of a tummy tuck because I don’t have a ton of support. I realize that a tummy tuck would guarantee good results but would BodyTite be able to get me decent results without the downtime and risks?
Answer: Tummy Tuck Hello and thank you for your question. It looks like you are a candidate for a tummy tuck. Schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss your options. Best wishes!

Answer: Is a tummy tuck the right choice? I am confident to say that any liposuction with skin tightening would leave you extremely disappointed. You are, by your photos, an excellent tummy tuck candidate. It seems you are muscle may not have to be tightened, which brings most of the downtime to this operation. You may consider a consultation with a plastic surgeon who specializes in tummy tucks to understand the healing process and what you can expect and returning to fairly normal activity. Good luck.

Answer: Tummy Tuck or BodyTite Dear booklover321, based on your photos, you look like a good candidate for a TT. Full tummy tuck should tighten your abdominal muscles and remove the excess skin. Flanks liposuction would give you a better shape. I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon because only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Answer: Tummy tuck? Firstly, Bodytite will do nothing for your tummy; there is no effective non-invasive body skin modality that I am aware of, please correct me if I am mistaken. Having said that, there are good options for you. The first question is if you have noticeable diastasis, meaning a bulge in-between your six-pack muscles when you do a sit up or plank type of action. Your muscles look flat in your photo so this is likely not a major issue in decision making. Assuming so, the I would recommend some liposuction with skin excision and umbilical transposition. This is a tummy tuck type of skin excision with NO muscle tightening. This can be done with an oral cocktail for sedation and local tumescent anesthesia, so you never go "under". There are no drains with resumption of activity as tolerated. There is an overall lower complication rate and down time compared to a traditional tummy tuck. This is a great option for many women out there . . . An in-person exam by an experienced body plastic surgeon will help guide you in your decision. Thank you, I hope this helps.
