What happens to your tummy tuck when you become and old woman? Does the corset one day snap and your stomach wall comes ballooning out? like when your 90 years old and you had one in your 30's what can one expect?
Answer: Tummy tuck results over time Thank you for your question. Your tummy tuck will be a long lasting procedure. It won't stop you from aging or developing laxity over time, however, it will allow you to regain some of the firmness and shape that you may have had when you were younger. I would visit with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss your options and long term results in more detail.

Answer: Long term effects of a tummy tuck. Thank you for your question. When your tummy muscles are repaired, your own tissue heals and makes the result long-lasting. The surgical repair will not suddenly snap and give way years later. However, natural aging will still occur after any cosmetic surgery procedure so your abdominal appearance could change gradually over time.

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!
