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.

After the process of healing , a TT will not affect your digestion. During the healing process it might be a bit affected because of the tightening of the muscles. Best of luck 

A Tummy TUCK is done to tighten the muscles and the skin. In doing so the pressure inside the tummy is temporarily raised. This means that if you had gastroesiphageal reflux or urinary stress incontinence these may worsen for awhile. However, your ability to digest your food will not change after a Tummy Tuck unless you have other medical conditions. Peter Aldea MDMemphus, TN

A tummy tuck can affect your intrabdominal pressure after your muscles have been tightened. However, it would be very unusual for this to effect one's digestion to the extent that it would be noticeable. 

Not in the least! The digestive system is anatomically not what we operate on in cosmetic surgery.  After a tummy tuck while you are still swollen and the skin is particularly tight as a consequence, you may feel better with several smaller meals as opposed to a large dinner sitting.
