Tummy Tuck + 360 Vaser Liposuction: Understanding the Basics
After significant weight loss, pregnancy, or major changes in body size, the abdominal skin, muscles and tissues do not always return to their previous position. For some people, excess skin is present not only from top to bottom but also across the width of the abdomen. The waist and back may also change shape.
A tummy tuck combined with 360 Vaser liposuction addresses these concerns together: the tummy tuck removes excess abdominal skin and can tighten the abdominal wall, while liposuction contours the waist, flanks, and back.
Lewis Medix does not provide medical care or perform procedures. We connect you with carefully vetted, accredited medical providers who offer a tummy tuck combined with 360 Vaser liposuction. Lewis Medix will support you with the coordination surrounding your care, including consultations, travel, accommodations, 24/7 onsite support, and recovery planning.
Our role is to help make your journey feel clear, organized, and supported from your first questions through your return home.
What Is Tummy Tuck + 360 Vaser Liposuction?
A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, removes excess skin and tissue from the lower abdomen and, when appropriate, repairs separated abdominal muscles.
360 Vaser liposuction uses ultrasound-assisted technology to help remove localized fat around the full circumference of the midsection.
Combining the two in one surgical plan allows the surgeon to shape the front, sides, and back of the torso together.
Who This May Be Right For
This combination may be considered by people who have both loose abdominal skin and areas of stubborn fat around the waist and back, and who are at or near a stable weight.
Because it is a more extensive procedure, your overall health and medical history are especially important. A qualified surgeon will assess whether a combined approach is appropriate for you.
Understanding the Procedure
This combined procedure is performed by a qualified surgeon in an accredited medical facility under anaesthesia.
The surgeon typically performs liposuction to contour the flanks, back, and abdomen, then removes excess lower abdominal skin, tightens the abdominal wall if needed, and repositions the belly button.
Your surgeon will explain the planned incisions, expected scars, potential risks, and recovery before you decide whether to proceed.
Lewis Medix does not perform medical procedures. We connect you with carefully vetted medical providers and coordinate the support surrounding your care throughout your journey.
Recovery Overview
Recovery reflects both procedures. Swelling, bruising, tightness, and discomfort are common early on, and you will usually wear a compression garment.
Your medical team will guide you on walking, posture, lifting, drains if used, and follow up appointments. Because it is a combined procedure, it is especially important to allow enough time before travelling home.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why combine a tummy tuck with liposuction?
A tummy tuck addresses loose skin and the abdominal wall, while liposuction contours surrounding areas of fat. Together they can shape the whole midsection in one surgical plan.
Will there be a scar?
Yes. A tummy tuck leaves a scar across the lower abdomen, usually placed low so it can be covered by underwear. Your surgeon will explain the expected scar.
How long should I stay near my surgeon?
This depends on your procedure and healing. Your surgeon will advise when it is safe to travel, and our concierge team plans your stay around that guidance.
Is this a weight loss procedure?
No. It is a body contouring procedure intended for people who are at or near a stable weight.
