Answer: What to eat after my tummy tuck with muscle repair and lipo? Thank you for your excellent question. It will be important to prevent straining in the immediate post surgery period so as to avoid strain on your muscle repair, so fiber and stool softeners are advised. To help heal your incisions, a diet high in protein is also advantage. After surgery you want to maintain a healthy diet, one that allows you to maintain your weight without large fluctuations, as this allows for the best long-term results. Hope that this helps.

Answer: Abdominoplasty | Tummy Tuck Thank you for your question about tummy tuck.It is best to be at a stable weight that you can realistically maintain after surgery. If you weight changes significantly, then this makes the results unpredictable.To be sure, see two or more experienced, board-certified Plastic Surgeons for a complete evaluation to make sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have a tummy tuck or related procedure.I hope this helps.

Answer: What to eat after my tummy tuck with muscle repair and lipo? Thank you for the question.There is no specific “recommended diet” for the post-tummy tuck patient. A well-balanced diet with high fiber and a good protein source would obviously be helpful (constipation is a frequent occurrence). Adding a protein shake ( to each meal) if necessary may also be helpful especially if your appetite is curtailed ( which often happens during this period). Frequent hydration is also important. Best wishes.

Answer: Weight gain prior to surgery I would eat healthy, drink plenty of fluids, and avoid alcohol. I would inform your surgeon ahead of time about your weight gain, so they can evaluate how this may affect your result. All the best.
