How can you tell whether you need Liposuction of the Abdomen or a Tummy Tuck?

This is a very confusing area for many people. If someone just has a thickness and fullness of their abdomen, but mild skin laxity, then liposuction would be the appropriate procedure. Liposuction can be performed in a circumferential approach, so that fat is removed from the front of the abdomen, sides and back, or the whole trunk. This circular approach reduces the entire trunk, contours the shape and allows a person to fit into smaller size clothes.

At what point in my weight loss do I make the decision to have the Liposuction or Tummy Tuck procedures?

The answer depends on your motivation and ability to lose the weight. We always recommend that a person lose as much weight as is comfortable until a plateau is reached, or the weight is just not coming off any longer.
