Should I get a tummy tuck if I have not had kids yet? (photos)

Please wait at least 6 months after your surgery to assess your results. Your body may still need to heal and you may find that you continue to see improvements. Also, continue to follow your post-op instructions closely. At the 6 month mark, if you still see the loose skin, please speak with your surgeon to discuss what can be done to achieve the results you want.

You don't need a tummy tuck. Also a tummy tuck will not recreate what you demonstrate in your photos.

Dear baby_face2298,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. Based on your photos, it looks like you don't have much loose skin in order to be a tummy tuck candidate. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

If you are planning on having children, wait until you have had all the children you want and then do the tummy tuck. You might consider minimally invasive skin tightening with radiofrequency, like ThermiTight, for now.

Typically it is recommended that you wait until you have finished having children before considering a tummy tuck as future pregnancies can alter your results. You may consider BodyTite which uses RF technology to tighten skin up to 40%. The procedure does not require general anesthesia and there is no long scar. See a board certified plastic surgeon near you to determine if this procedure is right for you.

You are NOT a TT candidate in any way.... Best you understand you have NO excess skin to be corrected with a TT. Please be careful because you can find a surgeon whom will cut you up.

Based on your pictures do you have minimal or mild skin laxity.

Weather that justifies having a tummy tuck with all the drawbacks of that procedure is a question you should discuss during in person consultations with local board-certified plastic surgeons.

Based on your pictures I don’t think that tummy tuck is justified.

Best,

What skin you are pinching is normal and everybody has it. No TT, mini or full, will fix that anyway.
