The Benefits of Combining Liposuction with Your Tummy Tuck Procedure

When it comes to achieving a flat, contoured abdomen, a tummy tuck and liposuction are often the perfect pair. While a tummy tuck removes loose skin and tightens muscles, liposuction targets stubborn fat deposits for a more sculpted look. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. David Kim performs breast augmentation for patients in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, CA, and surrounding locations.

Why Combine the Two?

On their own, each procedure offers specific benefits:

– Tummy tuck: Removes excess skin and repairs abdominal muscles
– Liposuction: Removes localized fat from areas like the flanks or upper abdomen

Together, they provide comprehensive reshaping of the midsection and surrounding areas.

Enhanced Body Contour

Combining liposuction with a tummy tuck allows your surgeon to:

– Sculpt the waistline for an hourglass figure
– Smooth out bulges around the hips and back
– Ensure a natural transition between the abdomen and flanks

This synergy produces more balanced, harmonious results.

Single Surgery, One Recovery

Rather than undergoing two separate surgeries:

– You only go under anesthesia once
– There’s a single recovery period
– You save time and cost

This makes combination surgery more efficient and convenient for many patients.

Are You a Good Candidate?

Ideal candidates are:

– In good overall health
– At or near a stable weight
– Non-smokers with realistic expectations

Your surgeon will evaluate your skin elasticity, fat distribution, and muscle condition to determine if this combination is right for you.

Liposuction and tummy tuck work exceptionally well together to reshape the entire abdominal area. If you’re seeking a more comprehensive body contouring solution, discuss the option of combining these two procedures during your consultation.
