Hello, I'm 38f, 5'5 and 170lbs. I'm currently losing weight and getting back to my normal BMI after gaining weight this past year. I never had children, however I had an emergency ectopic pregnancy and lost an ovary and fallopian tube ten years ago. Because of that surgery I have a cesarian scar, but I don't know if that means I require muscle repair. It's important to me to have a smooth look. Any advice would be appreciated! Thank you!

Answer: Recommendations From the photos you look like a great candidate for a standard tummy tuck with liposuction for contouring. This will address excess fat and skin as well as correct any abdominal wall laxity. The result will be flatter, tighter tummy. Once you have reached your weight loss goal and are able to maintain it schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon near you.

Answer: Tummy tuck with mesh reinforcement In your side view, you can see your abdomen is protruding anteriorly. If you are not planning future pregnancies, I recommend 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. Best Wishes, Gary Horndeski, M.D.
