Generally liposuction if skin elasticity is good
Your surgeon can help you decide on whether tummy tuck or liposuction is best for you.
Hello. It depends if you have any lax or sagging skin as well. If you do not, liposuction is the answer. If you do have excess skin you may need BodyTite as well. If you have excess skin, loose muscles and excess fat, you may need a tummy tuck.
At age 32, the best procedure is Liposuction for belly fat that is under the skin and not under the muscle or around your intestines and organs.
It can either be suction or an abdominoplasty. This depends on how you present yourself to the surgeon. And, on occasion, it can be both.
A lot depends on the condition of your underlying muscles and whether or not you have a lot of loose skin and stretch marks.
There is no “best” operation that covers all the variables. You have to go to an experienced Board Certified plastic surgeon to discuss your options and he/she will recommend a “best” operation.

Liposuction may be all that you need but based upon the appearance of your abdomen, you may require more a more extensive procedure such as an abdominoplasty (tummy tuck). A qualified surgeon who examines you will be able to provide you with the most appropriate option.
Thank you for your inquiry. There are many procedures available for the belly area. Noninvasive procedures like Coolsculpting can work for patients with minimal fat and minimal skin laxity who are looking for a non-invasive procedure. Liposuction in all forms works best when there is fat out of proportion with the rest of the body and minimal skin laxity or muscle laxity. A tummy tuck procedure is best for patients with skin and muscle laxity with minimal abdominal fat. The best procedure really depends on the patient. I always recommend having a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you and discuss all the options.
It definitely depends on the amount of fat, but can range from cool sculpting type procedures, lipo aspiration to dermolipectomy.
