I Am Considering an Avelar Tummy Tuck and Would Like to Know if I Am a Good Canidate?

July 29, 2011
Asked By:PonyXpress007 in Arlington, VA

I am 27, 5'7", 160lbs, size 12ish and have lost around 60lbs and kept it off for two years. Though, as you can see I still have loose skin that doesn't respond to steady diet and exercise. I would like to know if the Avelar method is the way to go or if I would achieve better results from a traditional tummy tuck. I also would like to know how having a tummy tuck will effect future weight loss as I would like to lose more weight from other areas.
