Answer: Weight Loss After TT
Many of my patients set a goal for the weight they want to lose. At times it is a significant loss and when they are close to that weight I have had no problem doing the tummy tuck and the skin continue to tighten up. Some of my best before and after photos are of patients who lost weight after their TT.

Answer: Weight Loss After Tummy Tuck
Hello Sammie,
Congratulations on seeking to achieve your ideal body weight. Following your tummy tuck, it is unlikely that an additional 10 pound weight loss will have a significant impact on your result. Many of my patients are so motivated by their tummy tuck results that they begin to exercise more and eat healthier. Often times this results in additional weight loss after their procedure. Even so, they have no skin loosening or sagging despite losing up to 20 pounds.
Best of luck with your procedure!
