Can I get a tummy tuck being a plus size woman? I love my curves just want my tummy flat and my planks gone?

You have to acknowledge that SAFETY is priority because your life should not be put  at risk because of a Plastic Surgery.So your BMI must be at least on 29 in order to have a safe procedure and prevent deadly complications as are: Deep Vein Thrombosis, Pulmonary embolism, bleeding, skin necrosis, infections, etc. Just think that nobody (including Us as professionals) wants complications, nor minor, nor mild either severe ones. So your health condition should be perfect by the time of your procedure and you will be loving your result.Be encouraged.Dr/ Cardenas 

Thank you for the question. Definitive advice would require in person evaluation but, generally speaking, it is possible for "plus size woman" to undergo tummy tuck surgery. Also, generally speaking, it is always best to achieve long-term stable weight prior to proceeding with body contouring surgery. Doing so, will increase the safety of the operation, will likely improve the outcome of the operation, and will decrease chances that additional surgery will become necessary subsequently. In my practice, I do not ask specific patients to achieve a specific weight prior to proceeding with tummy tuck surgery. I simply ask patients to achieve a long-term stable weight where he/she feels comfortable and does not expect significant fluctuation postoperatively.  When the time is right, seeking consultation with well experienced board-certified plastic surgeons will be your next/best step. Best wishes.
