LIPOSUCTION

Dr. Stile may suggest liposuction if you’d like to resolve fat bulges but have a relatively flat abdominal wall. During the surgery, he will make tiny incisions into hidden areas. This will allow him to suction the fatty tissue between your skin and abdominal wall. 

Dr. Stile will also sculpt your fat so that you’re left with a sculpted, attractive tummy. He may also perform liposuction on your thighs, hips, buttocks, arms, and other problem areas. 

TUMMY TUCK 

Also known as abdominoplasty surgery, a tummy tuck may be ideal if you’re facing loose skin and stretched abdominal wall muscles. Dr. Stile will make an incision at your bikini line, between your hip bones. This way he’ll be able to lift the skin and fat away from your abdominal wall.

In most cases, Dr. Stile will create a new belly button as well. If you’ve had a baby or lost a significant amount of weight, a tummy can help you achieve a flatter, more attractive midsection.

Dr. Stile and his staff will make you feel like you’re family. They really care and it shows. I had a breast augmentation, tummy tuck and liposuction. Dr. Stile is very talented. I couldn’t be happier results. I highly highly recommend him!

I’m a mother of 2 and I recently had a breast augmentation done by Dr. Stiles. I had a lift with an implant. I explained to Dr. Stiles that I wanted full and perky breast, but I didn’t want them to be too large . He achieved the perfect look for me! My entire experience has been wonderful thus far. His assistant Cynthia is also amazing. She was available to address my concerns day or night. If you are looking for a cosmetic surgeon in Vegas. I highly recommend Dr. Stiles and his entire staff.

CAN LIPOSUCTION AND TUMMY TUCK BE COMBINED? 

Believe it or not, Dr. Stile may recommend you combine liposuction and tummy tuck. A tummy tuck can tighten your abdominal muscles and remove excess skin while liposuction can contour your body and leave you with more dramatic results.

In addition, receiving both of these surgeries at once can save you money and recovery time. If you wish to get your pre-baby body back, note that both of these procedures can also be paired with a breast lift in a mommy makeover surgery.
