Answer: Tummy Tuck Longevity A tummy tuck is a procedure that can be done with the patient expectation of having long term results. There are 2 situations that would be detrimental to your tummy tuck results:1) Pregnancy- Can result in stretching back out you skin and re-separating your six pack muscles resulting in a lax abdominal wall.2) Weight Changes- Loosing or gaining 30lbs plus can result in residual laxity. I do not think 10-20lbs of weight changes is damaging, but 30 lbs or more certainly be detrimental to your tummy tuck results. Good luck with your cosmetic journey!
