Tummy Tucks and LiposuctionYou want to banish those love handles, or eliminate stretch marks, remove the fats on the neck. Liposuction will do it, you think. Before you add liposuction cost to that annual gym membership and killer bathing suit, tack on a tummy tuck. Liposuction can't tighten loose love handles or post-pregnancy stretch marks or loose skin due to rapid weight loss, for example also post-pregnancy or pre-high school reunion.
Many plastic surgeons recommend getting a tummy tuck rather than (neck) liposuction body sculpting, since liposuction reduces abdominal fat and not the inner girdle that expands with pregnancy. However, opinion is divided: Some surgeons do a mini tummy tuck and tumescent liposuction, while others favor liposuction over surgical abdominoplasty to restore youthful appearance.
Often, tummy tucks are done to tighten lax skin after liposuction. Frequently, surgeons combine the two with liposuction abdominoplasty or a mini tummy tuck on the lower abs that involves liposuction to remove excess fat. Ask your plastic surgeon for her recommendations. Remember that liposuction makes you feel as though you've hit the gym two times over. If you have separate procedures, schedule some recovery time in-between the liposuction and tummy tuck. However you think you look, your physical health is more important than getting rid of love handles and stretch marks.

I wanted to know if $11,500 is too much for a tummytuck and lipo?That is the price I was given.
ReplyDeleteYES !!!!!
DeleteI paid 9,200 for mine which included lipo of my flanks (back fat) and an abdominal repair. My doctor removed about 5 pounds of flesh and said it was one of her more taxing cases. I have a really nice symetrical result and would do it again tomorrow if I had to.
ReplyDeletesitups won't make your abs slim, you have to select a cardio like running or walking. eat more protein, that burns fats. eat less carbs. hope you all put some effort to flatten your tummy. go for the tummy tuck only if you have some health issues regarding exercises.
