Is liposuction done when getting a tummy tuck revision going to fix scarring and love handles?

It is not possible to give you good answer on such a broad question without any info. In person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon is recommended. Good luck.

Dear ms_ward,
I frequently combine liposuction and tummy tuck in order to smooth out love handle area and provide my patients with the best possible results. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Dear Ms Ward,   It would have been helpful to see your pictures. If the  tummy tuck revision is small and involves mainly scar revision, extensive liposuction can be done, however if you are having full tummy tuck revision, it is not safe to combine it with liposuction due to the significant increased risk of severe complications.    In a recent article in the plastic surgery journal that was based on data from cosmetic surgery only  insurance company, it was revealed that combining tummy tuck with liposuction increases the severe complication rate X 10 in comparison to tummy tuck alone.   In Florida, it is illegal to perform tummy tuck with liposuction of over 1000 cc, which is a relatively small amount. That occurred after state investigation of multiple severe complications and deaths that took place in cosmetic surgery centers. The conclusion of the investigation was that the most common cause for the complications and deaths was the combination of tummy tuck and liposuction !   Always, consult with experienced board certified plastic surgeons who operate in accredited surgery center for your safety. Most importantly, check the before and after pictures in the photo gallery of redo tummy tuck, to make sure that they are numerous, consistent and attractive with flat stomach,tight and youthful looking skin,  nice belly button, narrower waists, improved body posture and low scar.                    Best of luck,                                       Dr Widder
