Greatest concern is saggy buttocks. Not a massive weight loss patient. Two surgeons have recommended an extended tummy tuck, which they believe will provide a buttocks lift. However, I have not seen any back view pictures to substantiate this. In your expert opinion can an extended tummy tuck result in significant improvement of a saggy tush?

Answer: Does an extended tummy tuck lift the buttocks significantly An extended tummy tuck will more affect the hip/flank area. It will do little to lift the buttocks. If your main concern is the buttocks you want to communicate that to your surgeon and potentially consider a butt lift. It's very important to discuss your goals for surgery so that you can feel comfortable and confident in your surgical plan.

Answer: No tummy tuck lifts the buttocks By definition, all tummy tucks improve the front of your body, and in the case of an extended you may get some lifting of the sides of your legs. But not the buttocks. That requires a circumferential procedure or a lower body lift. That can be done by simply lifting the skin, or in combination with local or free fat transfer to add volume.
