Both of these procedures are designed to contour the body for flattering results. The main difference between these procedures is the location that they are performed on. While tummy tuck surgery
focuses solely on the stomach, liposuction can be utilized to sculpt several areas of the patient's figure.
Liposuction ("liposculpture")
Using the tumescent or ultrasonic method, our New York City liposuction doctor removes fat cells from various areas of the body, creating a more slender figure.
Tummy tuck surgery ("abdominoplasty")
Excess skin and fat that is concentrated in the midsection can effectively be reduced with the assistance of New York City tummy tuck surgery expert, Dr. Taranow.
Many patients ultimately decide to undergo both of these procedures, because they can target different areas while complementing one another. However, it is important to realize that these surgeries are only suggested if diet and exercise cannot produce the results that you are seeking.
