Lightheaded After Tummy Tuck Surgery

I hope you discussed this issue with your surgeon.  If not, you should ASAP.  Lightheadedness after any  major surgery could be due to blood loss during surgery (leading to anemia), your pain medications, dehydration, or a number of other things that could be more or less serious.  You need to call your surgeon for her medical advice.

Tummy tucks are an extremely popular and effective procedure to recontour the abdomen. Patients should remember that it is a significant surgery and will require a significant recovery process. For the first several weeks after the surgery, your body is getting used to your tissues being in a new and tighter position. Many patients take that they have a decreased appetite after the tightening of their muscles. During this process, make sure that you continue to stay well hydrated and avoid exercise. As your body becomes more accustomed to the new you, these sensations will subside.
