I am 23 years old in good health never had any children... currently have a bmi of 44, I am looking for a quote and suggestions for doctors in the Dominican Republic.
Answer: Tummy tuck and BBL Hello and thank you for your question. Based on your photographs and degree of skin laxity, you are a candidate for a tummy tuck with liposuction, despite your high BMI, as long as you are otherwise healthy. This can be done through a low incision, all completely below the bikini line. The belly button can be designed to look natural and have no scars on the exterior. A conservative BBL can be performed at the same time for improved buttock and waist contour. Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and evaluate their results. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person. Best wishes and good luck. Richard G. Reish, M.D. FACS Harvard-trained plastic surgeon

Answer: Am I a candidate? With a BMI of 44 you will first need to lose weight before considering a tummy tuck. Those with a BMI above 30 have a higher risk of complications such as poor wound healing, infection, and seroma formation. Being as close to possible to your ideal body weight will also allow your surgeon the opportunity to optimize your results.

Answer: BMI and #PlasticSurgery You BMI seems to be quite high and it would not be advisable to undergo elective cosmetic surgery. The risks of having various complications are high and you should ideally loose some weight before contemplating surgery.

Answer: Tummy tuck Thank you for your question. Each surgeon will have their own protocol based on BMI as long as you are healthy and medically cleared from your medical doctor it will probably not be an issue. You do look to be a great candidate for a tummy tuck. I would recommend an in person evaluation with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon to address your questions and concerns. Best of luck to you.
