Can I Combine Liposuction With A Tummy Tuck?

To achieve their body contouring goals, more and more men and women are considering cosmetic surgery. In an established plastic surgery center in NYC, patients can expect customized treatment by skilled New York City liposuction surgeons using advanced technologies. Many cosmetic surgical procedures can be performed together. Liposuction and tummy tuck surgery are among the most popular combination treatments.

Tummy Tuck

What is Liposuction?

Liposuction in NYC helps men and women get rid of stubborn fat from various areas of the body such as the abdomen, hips, buttocks, thighs, knees, upper arms, chin, cheeks and neck. Liposuction is the ideal option to improve body contour when even rigorous diet and strenuous exercise do not provide the desired results. While traditional liposuction does not address sagging skin which often occur due to pregnancy and sudden weight loss, advanced techniques such as laser assisted Smartlipo, ultrasound assisted VASERlipo, and radiofrequency assisted BodyTite provide both fat reduction and skin tightening benefits.

What is a Tummy Tuck?

Tummy tuck or Manhattan abdominoplasty removes excess fat and tightens saggy skin and weak muscles in the abdominal region. This procedure improves the appearance of your midsection by trimming the abdominal region. The main advantage of this procedure is that it can correct the skin sagginess in the abdominal region due to pregnancy or sudden weight loss.

Now let’s take a look how both procedures work together to improve your overall appearance when they are combined at the same time.

Benefits of Combining Liposuction and Tummy Tuck surgery

Both liposuction and tummy tuck remove unwanted fat. However, while liposuction addresses various areas of the body, a tummy tuck is focused on the abdominal region. By combining these procedures, patients can experience superior results-a well-shaped attractive body along with a trim midsection. With a successful combination procedure, you will notice that your clothes fit better than before.

In addition to its aesthetic benefits, the liposuction-tummy tuck combo offers other advantages:

  • Single recovery period

After determining your candidacy, an expert will provide customized treatment to help you achieve optimal results.
