How Much Weight to Lose Before Tummy Tuck and Liposuction?

Are sit-ups and crunches not giving you your desired taut tummy or the proverbial six-pack abs? Don’t be discouraged. It’s not you or the exercise routine you’re doing that’s wrong. The most likely culprit is excess skin, stubborn fat or both. If that is the case, you might want to consider getting a tummy tuck or a liposuction. Both of these surgical body contouring procedures can help achieve a shapelier contour, but each serve a different purpose.

Tummy Tuck

At a glance, a tummy tuck or abdominoplasty is a cosmetic enhancement procedure that removes extra skin and fat as well as tightens the muscles in your abdomen so you can have a flatter stomach.

Liposuction

Like the tummy tuck, liposuction will give you a svelte contour. The difference is this is strictly for fat reduction, particularly stubborn fat that just won’t budge no matter how hard you exercise or how strict you follow your diet.

You’ll get a much more optimized result if you do, and there is less risk of complications when your weight is at normal levels.
