i had my tummy tuck a few years ago and over the last 2 years, my hormons have changed and I have gained about 15 lbs. I have gained my weight in my breast and not my tummy. Is this what is suppose to happen after a tummy tuck?
Answer: Small increases in weight shouldn’t alter your results. Normal fluctuations in weight, from 10 to 15 pounds, shouldn’t affect your tummy tuck results. However, if your weight continues to creep up and you gain 20 or more pounds, the shape of your abdomen can become distorted and your skin may stretch. If the skin fails to “spring back,” at that point, you would require corrective surgery. As we age, our metabolism slows, and it’s important to adapt your diet and lifestyle to these changes in order to maintain optimal health as well as to preserve the results of your abdominoplasty.

Answer: Weight gain after surgery Weight gain after surgery really depends on your genetics. Some people notice the weight show in their thighs, and others may see it in their mid-section first. However, since fat cells were removed during your surgery, you have less in the area. Therefore, weight gain will be more obvious in other areas of your body. Not everyone will see it in their breasts, but it appears that's the case for you.

Answer: Weight Gain after Tummy Tuck Procedure Gaining weight in your breasts and not your tummy is really not the result of your tummy tuck. Everyone distributes their weight gain in different areas of their body. I am always asked the question of "what happens if I liposuction or a tummy tuck and wind up gaining weight? Will I gain it in another area not my tummy?" My answer is that you will likely gain your weight in the areas that you typically do. Now with menopause, that bet is off and the distribution changes. Usually women will tend to gain weight in the abdominal area once they hit menopause.Hope that helps.

Answer: Tummy Tuck + Gain Weight = Body Shape Modifications If you gain weight, the fat cells increase in size evenly in your body, where are more fat cells like in the abdomen, the increase in size is more noticeable. When a tummy tuck and liposuction is done, many of the fat cells from those areas are removed and they will not grow back in the same area. So if you gain weight after the tummy tuck, the increase in size will show in the areas you have not had liposuction done, usually the breast, arms, back, etc.
