Tummy Tuck After Weight Loss but Before Child Bearing?

September 29, 2009
Asked By:MizzGypsy

I am 26, I had gastric bypass surgery and am now at my goal weight and would like to get a Tummy Tuck.My question is, I haven't had any kids yet, but plan to in the future, would getting a Tummy Tuck before kids kind of be redundant? Since pregnancy can cause more skin down the road, stretch marks, etc? Thanks for your time.
