I am trying to decide if a tummy tuck is what I need and if the muscle repair will help make me flat. My insurance has already approved me for a breast reduction as well!

Answer: Considering options From your photos it appears you will have some improvement from a tummy tuck with muscle repair. Some of what is causing the protrusion of your abdomen is likely laxity. Visceral fat is also adding to the abdominal protrusion. This cannot be addressed with a tummy tuck or liposuction, but instead is addressed by weight loss. If your goal is a flat tummy, weight loss will help enhance your results.

Answer: Tummy tuck with mesh reinforcement If you are not planning future pregnancies, I recommend abdominoplasty with mesh reinforcement. The mesh creates a more hourglass figure by compressing the abdominal wall resulting in early satiety and helps maintain a reduced weight.
