CONTACT NOW Answer: How long do results of a Tummy Tuck last? Thank you for your question. Abdominoplasty will enhance your body contour by making your abdomen firmer and flatter. You may find that you feel more comfortable in your clothing and are more confident about your appearance. The incisions from the procedure will heal and fade over time. It is important to realize, however, that the incision lines will be permanently visible. In some instances, they will eventually be only faint lines. Certain individuals may have incision lines that are more noticeable. Fortunately, the incisions for your abdominoplasty are usually in locations concealed by most bathing suits and undergarments. Unless you gain or lose a significant amount of weight or become pregnant, your abdomen should remain firmer and flatter for many years. However, gravity and the effects of aging will eventually take their toll. If, after a period of years, you again become dissatisfied with the appearance of your abdomen, you may choose to undergo a second procedure to restore a more youthful body contour. Dhaval M.

Answer: Tummy Tuck Last
Tummy tucks can last for 10 to 20 years or more if there is no weight gain and the skin aging is good. But I really do not understand the need for longevity of the tummy tuck. Do you have a more specific question?

Answer: How Long Does a Tummy Tuck Last? A tummy tuck should last forever. There is some scar tissue that your body places around the surgical sites as well as the work that was done at surgery. Your body can still change the results with weight fluctuations, pregnancy etc. though and your overall skin tone will change with age which may change how the final appearance looks to you and others.For more information, please go to my website at:WirthPlasticSurgery.com
