Q: I’m 62 years old and fit, slim everywhere except my belly. I look pregnant and now my belly is sagging! Would you recommend CoolSculpting or liposuction?
TO: Belly fat can be frustratingly difficult to lose, especially after menopause. CoolSculpting probably wouldn’t remove enough fat, so I think only liposuction would give you the results you want.
AirSculpt, a keyhole liposurgery with local anesthesia, is worth investigating. The fat is softened and suctioned with a patented cannula through a small incision.

No scalpels or stitches, and the process is much less brutal than traditional liposuction. You can opt for an additional probe that emits heat to tighten the treated tissues, eliminating lax skin.
You will need to wear a compression garment for three weeks, but many patients can function normally after 48 hours.
It’s only available from London’s Elite Body Sculpture (uk.elitebodysculpture.com), from £8,000 per area. To find a good liposuction surgeon near you, search for doctors on tweakmentsguide.com or doctify.com.
