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: Tummy tuck after pregnancy I would typically want you to wait about 6 months so your body has time to transform back to a pre baby state and then we can get a better sense of what exactly needs to be done to address any remaining skin, fat, and loose muscles. Congrats and good luck in the future. Dr K
