Do you need liposuction with a breast reduction?
Thank you for the question. The need for liposuction during/after breast reduction depends on your fatty deposits on your chest wall, arms, and thighs. There is no clear answers to this.

Does skin tighten after liposuction?
There is some degree of tightening. It really depends on skin quality, location of the area suctioned, if there is history of weight gain/loss, especially repeatedly, what type of liposuction used (energy based such as laser ultrasound or bipolar radio frequency). If you have somewhat loose skin, best bet is combo liposuction with Inmode bodytite. Best to see a boarded plastic surgeon who you trust for honest advice. Good luck to you. READ MORE
