Tummy Tuck: Q&A

I'm 22 and Wanted to Know if Tummy Tuck is the Right Way to Go (photo)
I weigh about 185lbs and I'm 5'9. I plan on losing 40 lbs to reach my ideal weight. I have a lot of unattractive stretch marks and do not have any kids. I plan on having kids maybe 7 years from now or maybe 8 years. I want to look good now! I want to know if getting a tummy tuck is the right decision to make?

Tummy Tuck Candidate?
Thank you for the question and picture.
I think you may be an excellent candidate for tummy tuck surgery; you should be commended on your weight loss program and reaching your long-term goal weight prior to surgery.
You should be aware of the option of an “extended” tummy tuck procedure. This procedure may be helpful for some patients who are concerned about the “muffin top” or "love handles” (flank or lower back skin and adipose tissue)...
