Can I get a tummy tuck if I have a bladder sling?

 The tummy tuck can be performed after a bladder sling.Kenneth Hughes, MDBeverly Hills, CA................

Having had a bladder sling will not keep you from getting a tummy tuck. Find a board certified plastic surgeon for an evaluation and get all your questions answered. Good luck!

Thank you for the question. Your previous surgical history should not contraindicate tummy tuck  surgery. Generally speaking, the “ideal” patient for tummy tuck surgery is one who has completed pregnancies, is psycho socially/emotionally/financially stable, has an excellent social support system surrounding him/her, is capable of arranging enough recovery time, does not smoke and who has reached a long-term stable weight.  I hope this, and the attached link, helps. Best wishes.
