Do I need a tummy tuck or can I do liposuction?
Tummy tuck vs lipo
Jul 27, 2023
The main differentiating factor between tummy tuck and lipo is whether or not you have skin laxity, versus just excess volume. You're in great shape overall, and it's hard to tell the degree of skin laxity on the photo. Lipo is great at reducing excess volume, and creating a leaner shape and contours. It does not however tighten the underlying abdominal fascia, or remove excess skin, like the tummy tuck. One additional useful view would be the abdomen when bending forward. If there are a lot...
Can a regular tummy tuck tighten upper abdominal perfectly? Only reverse tummy tuck can?
Full tummy tucks tighten upper and lower abdomen
Jul 27, 2023
I think you're referring to a mini tummy tuck, not a full tummy tuck. Full tummy tucks tighten the abdominal skin from top to bottom, meaning from the lower border of your sternum in the middle, and the borders of the ribs along either side, all the way down to the pubic area below. Mini tummy tucks, on the other hand, by definition only tighten the skin below the belly button. Reverse tummy tucks are useful if there is only laxity above the belly button, and one does not mind having scars...
49kg, 5'1, could I be left with uneven bulges if I have a TT with shorter scar?
Length of tummy tuck scars
Jul 27, 2023
I agree with a full tummy tuck, since there is some skin laxity or looseness above the belly button as well as below, and would make the incision as long as it needs to be to give the best final result. The term "shorter scar" is relative, and not exactly equivalent to "short scar", so it's hard to know what that surgeon means as far as how long she/he plans to make the incision. Personally, I typically like to make the incision a bit longer than where the lower abdominal skin fold ends, if...
Can breast augmentation make breast tenderness linked to menstrual cycle worse?
Breast augmentation and menstrual pain
Aug 15, 2019
Breast augmentation would not be expected to make it better or worse. Whatever tenderness and changes you are having related to your cycle would likely continue, but not necessarily be any worse.
Could a TT revision help pain and swelling I’ve had for three years since surgery?
Pain after tummy tuck
Jun 12, 2019
Sorry to hear about your experience. What you are describing is not normal for a tummy tuck. The usual course for a tummy tuck is pain that is the worst the first few days after surgery, and then resolving over time, with most patients off of pain medication within the first week or so. The swelling typically improves a lot after the first 2-3 weeks, and then the rest gradually resolves. If you are having unbearable pain and swelling persisting for 3 years, the source of this pain and swe...
Am I a candidate for a smooth or mini tuck?
Candidate for mini tummy tuck
May 28, 2019
Based on the photo, you are not a candidate for a mini tummy tuck, and would actually need an extended incision since your skin laxity and fullness extends past your sides. Mini tummy tucks are great for those that have just a small amount of loose skin below the belly button only. If you have loose skin of the entire front of the abdomen, and that extends all the way to the back, you are a candidate for a full tummy tuck. Also, there appears to be fullness along the flanks or love handle re...
Went to a consultation and PS says no need for lift if I get a big enough implant (don’t want the
Large implants do not replace the need for lift
May 28, 2019
Large implants will not replace the need for a lift. Large implants will give you fullness sitting just as low as it does now, if not lower due to weight and stretch placed on already loose skin. This will give volume for sure, but the fuller and lower they are, the more "matronly" they will look (rather than full and perky), and will only provide upper pole fullness early on before the implants settle. There are a number of factors that affect upper pole fullness, and include the implant pr...
Lower belly button position after pregnancy and wanting a tummy tuck. Will my belly button be put
Belly button position after tummy tuck
May 28, 2019
It is common to have the belly button appear lower after pregnancy, or even after weight gain and loss without pregnancy, and yes, it can be restored to a higher position. Typically the belly button is left attached from below, meaning an incision is made around the belly button without detaching it from underneath. Then the skin flap is raised and the excess skin removed, and then the belly button is brought out through the newly tightened skin. The technique used for the belly button af...
Areola below incision skin becoming darker like it extended. Do I need a revision?
Dark pigment outside of areola
Apr 23, 2019
The photo shows an incision for a breast lift, not simply a breast augmentation. The areola itself is healing fine. The darker skin below is not new darkening. It was present before the breast lift as well, and was located around the areola. The areola border can be sharp or distinct in some patients, and can be less of a true border and more of a gradual fade out of pigment in other patients. Both are normal. What happens when that skin that has pigment is not removed, and the areola is mov...
Am I a facelift candidate?
Facelift after massive weight loss
Apr 22, 2019
Age is only one of many factors taken into consideration when determining if a patient is a good candidate or not for a facelift. Whereas your age alone would suggest you may not need a facelift, the fact that you have lost 80 pounds makes the age a lesser consideration. Any time a patient loses that much weight, the face is affected, both with volume loss, and typically excess loose skin. Kybella is great to decrease the volume of the neck, but it has a limited tightening effect. Once jowls...
If I get a tummy tuck without lipo then heal and have a bbl surgery will my skin be flabby? (phot
Which to do first, BBL or TT
Apr 18, 2019
Tightening the skin during tummy tuck will give a tighter and flatter contour to the abdomen, but will not thin the thickness of the flap itself. Lipo of the abdomen may be useful to thin the flap for an even flatter contour if there is a thick layer of fat. It really depends on how much of the fat is intra-abdominal vs extra-abdominal. The intra-abdominal fat is the fat around your organs, and is not touched during lipo, and in some patients it is this fat that gives a fuller contour. The e...
Should I opt for a full tummy tuck with lipo vs lipo only vs lipo and skin-only tummy tuck? (Phot
Lipo vs TT vs both
Apr 18, 2019
Regarding the abdomen, the main differentiating factor here is if you want to address volume only, or volume and loose skin. Lipo (Smart lipo or otherwise) is not going to tighten your skin, but can be an excellent way to contour volume. After 3 pregnancies, the majority of women would have enough loose skin for a tummy tuck. An in person exam would really be needed to determine your best option. If there is not enough looseness to remove the skin between the current belly button and lower...
How much of my tattoos would be cut off if I have a tummy tuck?
Tattoos and tummy tucks
Apr 11, 2019
Any time a patient has tattoos on the abdomen in the region that will be affected by a tummy tuck, I give the patient an idea of how much I think they may lose, and if it will leave a partial tattoo behind. I think a beautiful contour is more important that adjusting the incisions for a lesser result in an attempt to save a tattoo, and patients tend to agree. Since you are planning tattoo removal anyway, this does not pose a problem. Typically the skin between the belly button and pubic ...
Can my small frame support 550cc?
Any implant size is relative
Apr 5, 2019
It is important to note that the perceived size of any implant, or breast size in general, is related to the individual frame and body type. On a tiny frame, even a 350 cc implant can look very large. On a large frame, such as a heavier patient with large diameter breasts, 800 cc implants can look very small. Based on the description of your frame, I would not recommend upsizing at all. Obviously an in person exam is required for true recommendations, and may change my recommendations, but ...
TT with lipo: Do fat removal calculations include fat attached to the skin or just the fat remove
Liposuction and tummy tuck
Mar 26, 2019
Typically the "volume of fat removed" in liters refers to the fat that was removed by liposuction. The fat removed during a tummy tuck is attached to the overlying skin, and if patients want to know how much was removed, the skin and fat are weighed together and reported in grams or pounds, as opposed to liters. Just a side comment- if a patient needs 5 liters of liposuction from the trunk in addition to a tummy tuck, it sounds like that person may not be a good candidate for either procedu...
