Congratulations on your weight loss. 60 pounds is very impressive. I recommend losing as much weight as possible for optimal plastic surgery results. By examining your pictures, I think you would benefit from a tummy tuck with muscle plication and liposuction of the flanks. This can be combined with a breast lift with implants. Full recovery will be about 6-8 weeks (but this can vary from person to person).

"Mommy makeover" is the general term for lots of different combinations of procedures. It could be tummy and breasts, breasts and arms, tummy and thighs, etc.

Please continue to eat right and exercise. When you are at a stable weight for 3 months, please seek a board-certified plastic surgeon who has experience in tummy tucks and breast lifts. I wish you the best of luck. Congratulations again on your weight loss.

Dear alee027,
based on your photos, you look like a good candidate for a TT. Full tummy tuck should tighten your abdominal muscles and remove the excess skin. Flanks liposuction would give you a better shape. I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon because only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Congratulations on your impressive weight loss! You will want to wait until you have met your weight loss goal and are able to maintain it before proceeding with surgery. This will give your surgeon the best opportunity to optimize your results. At this time it appears you are a candidate for an extended tummy tuck with liposuction for contouring. Another evaluation will be needed once you reach your goal weight. Great job so far!
