Answer: Can I do a tummy tuck even if I am morbidly obese? Hi Sarah789, Having an unhealthy body mass index means you are more likely to encounter complications during and after your surgery, which is a risk your surgeon probably won’t want to take. At our clinic, we have performed lap band abdominoplasty on morbidly obese patients in certain cases, but my advice would be to at least try to lose some weight first to increase your chances of a successful and pleasing result. All the best,Craig

Answer: Healthy Weight is Important Hi there and thank you for your question. It can be frustrating to get the weight off, however, plastic surgery does not result in massive weight loss. In our clinic, we would strongly urge you to seek a healthy diet and exercise program that is medically assisted before embarking on any plastic surgery procedure. Sometimes these programs can be covered under insurance. Best of luck to you. -Dr. Coan.
