Posted under Tummy Tuck q&a

My BMI is 36. Are there any surgeons that would schedule me in for a tummy tuck?

My BMI is 36. I just had a consult and the doctor I went to said I need to lose 20 pounds for him to do the surgery. When I start to lose weight it comes off my legs and my breasts and I want to keep that! I just want the tummy gone and I’m ready to pay full price cash. I want a Brazilian butt lift also. I understand the results wont be 100 percent but to me any improvement would motivate and encourage me to keep improving myself! Are there Any surgeons that would go ahead and schedule me in?
