Can I still have a tummy tuck if I've had acute pancreatitis in the past due to gallstones?

Having had previous surgery should not prevent a patient from undergoing a tummy tuck procedure. A decision like this has to be made on an individual basis. If you are in good health otherwise,  a tummy tuck probably will be possible. I suggest having an in person consultation with local board-certified plastic surgeons in your area.

If you are in good health currently, a history of pancreatitis should not prevent you from having a tummy tuck at this time. You should of course have medical clearance from your primary care physician or GI doctor before having a tummy tuck.Best wishes,Dr.Bruno
