One of the most common questions we hear: "Should I get liposuction or a tummy tuck?" The answer depends on your specific concerns and goals.
Liposuction is best for:
Removing stubborn fat deposits
Patients with good skin elasticity
Contouring specific areas
Minimal to no excess skin
Shorter recovery time
Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty) is best for:
Removing excess, loose skin
Tightening separated abdominal muscles
Post-pregnancy or post-weight loss changes
Creating a flatter, firmer abdomen
More comprehensive transformation

Absolutely! Many patients benefit from combining liposuction with a tummy tuck for optimal contouring and comprehensive results. Dr. Byrne will assess your anatomy and recommend the approach that will give you the best outcome.
