Posted 16 Feb 2009

I had a gastric bypass (RNY) done in 2006. I was 248 pounds and after surger lost 75 pounds. In December 2008 I decided to have the loose skin removed from my belly and have a tummy tuck to straighten things up.

I paid for the tummy tuck and my insurance company paid for the loose skin removal. I am so absolutely amazed and happy about my tummy tuck!! It was painful, but worth everything I had to go through to have it. Great results! I even dropped another pants size.

This review is the subjective opinion of a RealSelf member and not of RealSelf, Inc.

Helpful review?

My Doctor: Geoffrey Durham-Smith, M.D.

My rating:

I had a referral from another patient who had RNY surgery. I also asked a malpractice attorney I know who the best plastic surgeon in the city was...

How did you get the insurance to cover the skin removal?
