Answer: Tummy tuck after weight loss Thank you for your question and congratulations on the weight loss! That's an amazing amount of weight to lose. Looking at your photos I would suggest a regular tummy tuck possibly an extended tummy tuck. This will allow your surgeon to remove all the extra skin and tighten up the abdominal wall muscles that have loosened up during the weight loss. I would suggest seeing a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon in person to evaluate you and discuss your options with you. Best of luck to you and again congratulations on the weight loss.

Answer: Game time decision for FDL Tummy Tuck I would consider doing a tummy tuck with the option of making an intra-operative decision on how much skin laxity you had in the vertical domain after setting your skin tension with the horizontal wound closure. I've done that a few times and I've been pleased with the result.

Answer: Do I need a fleur de lis tummy tuck? (Photo) You will have to decide whether the vertical scar is worth the improvement in smoothness and contour. The FDL scar would not be hidden by bikinis or workout pants worn beneath the BB.
