I am looking for a Dr in the DMV area who is willing to do a plus size tummy tuck i am 34 5'4 and weigh 237. I had lap band surgery in 2009 and lost 60lbs. I am happy being a plus size woman in just want the hanging skin on my stomach gone. I don't want to loose any more weight because i don't want all the loose skin and want to keep my womanly shape. I am not looking for perfection i just want to be comfortable in my own skin again so someone please help me!!
Answer: Tummy tuck candidate Thank you for your question. Based on your photo you appear to be good candidate for full tummy tuck with liposuction including abdomen, laterals, waist and upper and lower back to improve your body contour and get better curves especially in your laterals and waist. For safety reasons and to be a good candidate for the procedures you want, you must be a healthy person, within an appropriate BMI.Kind regards,Dr. Emmanuel Mallol Cotes.-

Answer: Tummy tuck candidates It appears as though you're an excellent candidate for a tummy tuck. Those patients who would benefit from this surgery have excess hanging skin around the abdomen as well as looseness of the abdominal muscles. Therefore, it appears as though you could benefit from this procedure.Thank you for your question!Dr. SchreiberBaltimore plastic surgeon

Answer: Plus size tummy tucks. If your health is otherwise good I see no reason why you should not easily find a plastic surgeon to do your tummy tuck! All surgeries carry risks, so choose your surgeon carefully. Look for a board certified plastic surgeon, who has done a ton of plus size tummy tucks, has previlages to perform this surgery at a local hospital and operates at a certified surgical facility. Don't be shy to ask: how many tummy tucks have you done on women my size, and don't settle for vague answers. A lot of bias exists regarding plus size people, I should know, I used to be 267 lbs. I too had a bariatric operation and have been slender since. Good luck and I wish you a safe and easy recovery.
