Do surgeons perform tummy tucks on patients with Ehlers-Danlos or are specialists needed? (photos)

Asked By:intrepids2 in New England, USA

I am 49y.o. who had uncomplicated breast reduction in 2022 and BBL 6 months ago. Just found out that I have Ehlers-Danlos and am concerned that I might not be able to get a tummy tuck. I have loose skin and new prominent mons that affects what I can wear. I am wondering if most surgeons would be comfortable doing TT on EDS patient. Do I need to find a specialist and could it possibly help my stress incontinence?
