What is the most effective way to get a a full body makeover? What procedures would I need? (photos)

When contemplating multiple procedures you will want to consider a few things: Which areas are my priorities? and Which areas are good to combine? For example patients often combine breast work with abdominal work. Or liposuction with a tummy tuck. The best place to begin is a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon near you to discuss your concerns. An examination will help determine the recommended procedures for your concerns. For example if liposuction is adequate to address your back or if skin laxity is the main issue resulting in a bra line lift being recommended.

Thank you for your question regarding what you should get done in a full-body makeover. Since your problem points are your double chin, back, arms, and stomach, I think liposuction will be a good option for you. You don’t seem to have a lot of excess skin by looking at your photos. However, a consult is in order. I can’t see your back from this photo that you provided but if you have excess skin there, there is a chance that the skin will not fully snap back after liposuction. I recommend VASER Hi-Def liposuction, which uses heat to melt the fat and also helps the skin contract. VASER hi-def would be the way to go if you want a contoured abdomen. You can also use VASER Hi-def liposuction on the arms to get you toned arms with muscle definition. I would recommend traditional liposuction of the neck to address the double chin that you mentioned. Your neck skin should snap back very nicely because of your age and skin quality. It will be essential for you to wear your compression garments consistently throughout your recovery. Thank you for your question regarding the most effective way to get a full body makeover with your pain points: your double chin, back, arms, and stomach. The suctioned fat will be transferable to the buttocks if you prefer to enhance your buttocks. Please choose a board-certified plastic surgeon. Thank you and good luck.

Thank you for your question and pictures. I suggest a full body liposuction of your abdomen, back, sides, waist and flanks, you can also get fat transfer to buttocks and hips depending on what's your goal. You should consider losing weight before surgery, most plastic surgeons won't accept patients with a BMI over 30-33

Dear haileywaller
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

Thank you so much for your questions @haileywaller First if you are thinking to have surgery prepare your body for it, good meals, exercises and vitamins. To answer your question based on your pictures I will recommend you to have a combination of Liposuction/BBL and Tummy tuck with muscle repair. Make an appointment for a consultation with a plastic surgeon for better recommendations. Good luck!
