I have loose skin when I'm in a plank position and it looks gross, is there a procedure I can do that's not expensive? (Photos)

The only way to address loose skin is by removing it .i.e tummy tuck. Laser lipo will only remove fat and make the skin looser. Unfortunately there are no effective non-surgical skin tightening options that will correct this about of looseness. Regards, Dr Steve Merten, Sydney, Australia

Having one photo makes it difficult to make a complete assessment and recommendation.  The tummy tuck will be the only surgery to address the skin laxity and tighten the abdomen in the appropriate fashion. Do not select your plastic surgeon based upon cost alone.  I would search for the board certified plastic surgeon who you feel is most likely to give you the best results and who performs hundreds of TTs each year. I would look at patient reviews as well as before and after photos on that surgeon's website. Then schedule a virtual consultation (it's typically free) with the plastic surgeon to discuss the path to reach your goals. Kenneth Hughes, MD, Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA

Based on your appearance, I think a tummy tuck is the best procedure for you. Liposuction Is less expensive, but it will not make the skin any tighter. If you are on a budget, be careful not to confuse the lowest price with the best deal. Extremely low price could indicate less access to your surgeon before and after surgery, inferior quality of supplies like sutures and anesthetic medications, and potentially more out of pocket costs if you experience a complication.
