There are several reasons not to get a tummy tuck at the same time as your C-section:
- Circulating estrogens will generally result in a less favorable scar
- You will regain some skin tone and elasticity in the coming months after delivery. This would give a more accurate and tighter result.
- You will regain some muscle tone as well.
- You need to focus on you and your newborn baby. Not the time to be recovering from a tummy tuck
- C-section is arguably a less sterile procedure than a tummy tuck
- I would question the judgment of the PS doing the tummy tuck at the time of a C-section.
- It may not save you money anyway, particularly if the procedure could be done in an office operating room.
