Any Recommendations for Further Waist Reduction Surgery?

Q: Dr. Eppley, Hello there, so I’m trying to see waistline reduction for a specific measurements, I’ve already removed the 12th, 11th, and the 10th rib previously. Had liposuction and I still have yet to achieve the proper results that I’m looking for. I was wondering what you might suggest.

A: Whether you can ever achieve the waist narrowing results you are striving for is up for debate. But what is clear is that the last anatomic barrier to what is possible is skin. The rolls of skin on your back indicate significant laxity for which a vertical backlift can have a definitive torso narrowing effect.
