I am about 7 months pregnant and will soon be scheduling my 2nd c section. How soon after would I be able to have these two surgeries one for the liposuction to get rid of the fat and the tummy tucks to tighten that loose skin?
Answer: How soon after a c-section can I get lipo and a tummy tuck? You will need at least 3 months following delivery before having plastic surgery.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA

Answer: Tummy Tuck After C-Section Delivery In general, I like my patients to have lost their baby weight, stopped breast feeding, and resume their normal activity level. Usually patients are ready by about 4 to 6 months.

Answer: Tummy tuck after c-section Hello and thank you for your question. I would recommend waiting 6 months from the birth of your child before having a tummy tuck. A tummy tuck can be done through a low and short incision, all completely below the bikini line. The belly button can be designed to look natural and have no scars on the exterior. Your muscles can also be plicated resulting in a flat abdomen. Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and evaluate their results. The most important aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person. Best wishes and good luck. Richard G. Reish, M.D. Harvard-trained plastic surgeon

Answer: How long should you wait before getting a TT? Most plastic surgeons will like you to wait at least 6 months after delivery to give your body adequate time to heal from the c-section. This also gives you time to lose any weight you may have gained during your pregnancy. Hope this helps!
