Tummy tuck in patients above their ideal body weight

Hi,

You're not a great candidate for a tummy tuck at your current height and weight.  That being said, many patients are not able to reach their ideal body weight prior to surgery. They still get improvement from surgery, but the results are not as good as they would be if they lost weight prior to surgery.  There are some examples in the photo gallery on my Web site.

My best advice is to finish having children and then try to lose as much weight as you can.  Although it won't be easy, the results of surgery will be tremendously enhanced.

Hope this helps.  Best of luck.
