Does Everyone Still Have Loose Skin After Their Tummy Tuck?

Asked By:NoMoreFlab536 in los angeles

I am going in for my tummy tuck in 4 hours!! Two days ago after reading everything I possibly could about it online, I started reading about the saggy skin that is left behind. My questions: does everyone get this? If not, how can I prevent it? Ive heard that sometimes after a few months it looks even worse. Im soo anxious to go under feeling like this... I will post my pictures as soon as I get near a computer.
