Do tummy tucks affect digestion?

No, a tummy tuck will not affect your digestion as the stomach itself is not operated on. The operation involves removing excess skin and fat as well as tightening the muscles of the abdominal wall. Its possible that you may feel full a little earlier for a while after the procedure, but your actual digestion will not be affected. Hope that helps!

Thank you for your question.#TummyTuck Surgery will tighten your #abdominal muscles and as a result, during healing, you may feel some tightness in your abdomen which may initially affect your eating habits, making you feel full sooner.  However, the #surgery will NOT affect #digestion.

Thank you for your excellent question.  Once fully healed a tummy tuck will not affect your digestion.  In the immediate post-surgery period you will face some bloating and likely constipation as a result of general anesthesia and prescription pain medication, but this passes with time.  Hope this helps.
