Liposuction and a tummy tuck aren't designed to make you lose a lot of weight. They are only designed to recontour your body. For this reason, the treatments won't have a significant impact on your weight. However, if it is still shortly after your surgery, you may still be swollen which could be contributing to your weight. It's better to look at your overall contour rather than the scale.
Thank you for the question. I do not expect it there would be much weight loss associated with mini tummy tuck and liposuction of the lateral thighs.

I hope this helps.

Liposuction is very effective in conjunction with a tummy tuck procedure, but it will not take care of excess skin. You look like you could need an extended tummy tuck to treat the skin along the side of your waist as it extends along your back (this must be determined by your operating ...
Dear Marcj20 Thank you for your question. The change in contour of your neck when you tilt your head down is not easy to treat- particularly if you do not have much fat under the skin. At your age the neck structures should be pretty good- as shown by your description when your...
