Liposuction Tummy Tuck in Orange County
As you get older, countless issues can lead to loss of firmness in your abdomen. Your weight may fluctuate, or you may have babies, or your skin may get damaged over time, or you may simply be prone to the effects of gravity. No matter the cause, the solution for many is the tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, which has helped thousands of those in Orange County regain their tight, healthy abdominal contour.
Liposuction Tummy Tuck
Contrary to popular belief, liposuction is not necessarily a part of a tummy tuck. It’s an optional component, generally used to shape the body in addition to the abdominoplasty procedure. However, it has always been accepted as a safe additional procedure to liposuction, and is commonly used when additional body contouring is necessary.
Now, many people are opting for a procedure that is growing in popularity – liposuction tummy tuck. This procedure is more commonly referred to as lipo-abdominoplasty, and is as follows:
- First, the abdominal area and love handles are shaped using liposuction. This is designed to make sure that you’re able to get the shape you desire from your OC tummy tuck procedure, and give you a better foundation for the tummy tuck component of your surgery. We use what’s known as “blunt liposuction cannula,” which takes out much of the deep fat of the abdomen, but will not damage blood vessels, arteries, lymphatic vessels, or nerves.
- Once completed, Dr. Agha will excise all of the loose abdominal skin using a full tummy tuck incision. The full tummy tuck incision begins on one side of the hip and extends to the other side. Dr. Agha will continue with the full tummy tuck procedure, and close your abdominal incision safely to provide you with a flat, sexy stomach.
The primary difference between a liposuction tummy tuck and a traditional tummy tuck is that in the traditional tummy tuck, liposuction is usually limited to the waist, so as to make sure the body heals more effectively. With the liposuction tummy tuck, a more aggressive liposuction is performed, but the underlying blood vessels are kept intact so that healing can still be completed at a good pace.
Overall, this methodology for abdominoplasty helps to make sure that your body has not only the flatter stomach, but also the ideal contour that you imagine for your belly and abdomen. It’s also safer than very aggressive liposuction during a traditional tummy tuck and provides an overall better aesthetic look for those trying to overhaul the contour of their body.
Who benefits from Lipo-abdominoplasty
Not all patients require liposuction tummy tuck. For most patient, liposuction of the waist with a high-definition tummy tuck will achieve the best results. However these are some patients who not only have loose abdominal skin and tissue but also have a thick layer of fat above their abdominal muscle. In these patients, a traditional tummy tuck will take care of the excess, hanging abdominal skin and tissue, but it does not thin out the abdominal fatty layer over the muscle. To thin out the abdominal fatty layer, liposuction is used to remove the excess fat under the abdominal skin. The thinned out abdominal tissue is then excised through a modified tummy tuck technique. In this manner, the abdominal tissue fat is first thinned out and then the excess abdominal skin and tissue is cut out to produce a flat abdomen that is tight and thin.
