Tummy Tuck vs Liposuction: What Is My Best Option

0
0

With the rising costs of tummy tucks, abdominal liposuction can be a great alternative. Many people contact MyShape Lipo asking if we offer tummy tucks and if they even need to go to the extreme of getting this surgery done. People often feel that a tummy tuck surgery is their only option for getting the shape they want. Trevor Schmidt PA-C, the Liposuction Specialist at MyShape Lipo in Las Vegas has proven that the combination of Liposuction and SmartLipo Laser Skin Tightening can offer patients incredible results without going under the knife.

At MyShape Lipo, the liposuction prices are a lot more cost effective than getting a tummy tuck, saving the patient money, reducing recovery time and eliminating obtrusive scars.

Since abdominal fat can be resistant to exercise and healthy eating, a tummy tuck is typically thought of when someone wants a flatter mid-section. Before liposuction gained popularity, the tummy tuck procedure was the go-to option.  While the tummy tuck procedure is still performed, Trevor Schmidt specializes in abdominal and large volume liposuction and recommends this as a better alternative for most patients.

For those who have loose skin or are getting a large amount of fat removed, the option of adding in SmartLipo Laser Skin Tightening is always recommend. Tumescent Liposuction and SmartLipo Skin Tightening are performed in the same procedure to give the body a new shape.

For most individuals, the tummy tuck operation is a very extensive procedure.  The incision usually extends from hip to hip and can often be nearly 2 feet long.  The belly button is often moved a considerable amount during the tummy tuck procedure, requiring another abdominal scar to reposition the umbilicus in the mid-section.  In contrast, liposuction procedures require only tiny incisions which are hardly noticeable after time and liposuction does not move the belly button.

Many previous patients of MyShape Lipo who had initially called in for information on a tummy tuck have went the route of getting liposuction of their abdomen instead of having a tummy tuck surgery. They have been so pleased with the results that they do not feel the need to get a tummy tuck anymore. Since very little fat is removed with a tummy tuck procedure, it is not recommended to get a tummy tuck if there is a large volume of fat in the midsection. It is possible for patients to have a tummy tuck after liposuction if additional skin tightening is desired.
