Have to do a hysterectomy and hernia repair, can I get a tummy tuck at the same time?

Dear newbody43,It is possible to do a tummy tuck and hysterectomy procedure together, if it is safe based on your personal case. You will need to coordinate between your gynecologist and plastic surgeon. Best of luck!

Hello and thank you for your question.  The best advice you can
receive is from an in-person consultation.  It is certainly possible to have these procedures combined together in the same setting.  You will have to find a OBGYN and plastic surgeon who can work together.   If you are an appropriate candidate for a tummy tuck, this can be done through a low and short incision, all
completely below the bikini line.  The
belly button can be designed to look natural and have no scars on the
exterior.   Your muscles can also be
plicated resulting in a flat abdomen. 
Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of
real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and evaluate
their results.  The most important aspect is to find a surgeon you are
comfortable with. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified
board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person.
Best wishes and good luck.
