Question

Good day doctors! Thank you for finding time in your busy schedules to answer my questions. I really appreciate this

Albert Ko, MD · Answer

Thank you for your question and photos. Yes, from your photos you would be a great candidate for liposuction. It is best to have an in person consultation to be examined for a tummy tuck. I am not able to see if you have a diastasis recti from the photos. Best of luck!

Thank you for your question regarding whether you should have a tummy tuck with lipo. I think it would be an excellent candidate for a tummy tuck with lipo. Examining your picture, you have excess skin and fat of the abdomen. Your belly button has down-turned edges which is indicative of skin elasticity and some excess fat. I believe if you just had liposuction of your abdomen, you would be left with wrinkled skin. Therefore my opinion would be to undergo a tummy tuck with liposuction of your love handles. Good luck. I hope this helps answer question regarding whether you should have a tummy tuck with liposuction.

Thanks for your inquiry and picture, if you are done having children you appear to be a good candidate for a tummy tuck.  Please seek in person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss further.

Dear Valentina561,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. Based on your photo, it looks like you don't have much loose skin so you are probably a better candidate for liposuction. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

From your photo it appears you are a candidate for a tummy tuck with liposuction for contouring.  This would address excess fat and skin as well as correct any abdominal wall laxity.  The result would be a tighter, flatter tummy.  The next step is to schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon near you.

Hi dear , according to your photos you are the perfect candidate for a tummy tuck and Lipo, With the correct medical evaluations and a more personalized evaluation we could determine if you are a candidate for mini tummy tuck.

Lourdes Rodriguez, MD · Answer

Hello, thank you for your question and picture.
After evaluating your case the best treatment option is a tummy tuck, only liposuction on the abdominal area will only leave your skin more saggy not delivering good results.

Make sure to approach to a certified surgeon to help you clear all your doubts.

Best wishes!
