What is the difference between a tummy tuck & tummy tuck with liposuction?

Liposuction or Lipoplasty Surgery San Antonio / New Braunfels

Liposuction or Lipoplasty Surgery is an ideal procedure for people who want to remove fat from certain areas of their bodies.

About Liposuction 
San Antonio / New Braunfels
If you have dieted and exercised, only to be disappointed by a body that doesn't seem to respond to your efforts, you might benefit greatly from liposuction. During a liposuction surgery, Dr. Harris will remove fat from areas of your body that you wish to contour.

Tummy Tuck (abdominoplasty)   San Antonio / New Braunfels
A tummy tuck is a procedure that removes excess loose skin, which occurs frequently as a result of child bearing. Sometimes, the muscle is separated because of the effect of being stretched during pregnancy. An option of this procedure is to repair the muscle separation.

Liposuction can be combined with tummy tucks.    San Antonio / New Braunfels
Liposuction is frequently performed on the pubis and flanks at the time of a tummy tuck.  Liposuction of the upper abdomen can be associated with serious complications such as skin necrosis. 

Liposuction can be performed simultaneously on the arms, thighs or knees if desired.  It is best to discuss this in detail with your plastic surgeon.
