Tummy tuck and visceral fat. Can I expect good results from a tummy tuck? (Photos)

A tummy tuck should give you some improvement as it appears you have abdominal wall laxity. However you will not likely be able to achieve a flat tummy due to the visceral fat. Weight loss is the best way to help you reduce the visceral fat and improve your potential tummy tuck results.

The technique I recommend is 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.
