Jeffrey E. Schreiber, MD answers: Tummy tuck worth it on loose skin for a 17-year-old?

Is a tummy tuck worth it? I'll include my picture, but I'm 17 years old, turning 18 in Decemeber. I have some loose skin that has somewhat decreased. I'm just curious if you think I should have it and if it would make my stomach look presentable

Hi Nyrguy91 - It appears as though you may have had a large amount of weight loss owing to the stretch marks and excess skin.  Therefore, a tummy tuck may be great for you to get rid of the excess skin.  If you have looseness of your abdominal area, this can be tightened as well.  Check out some before and after pictures to get an idea of what you want your abdomen to look like.  Good luck!
