I am getting mixed suggestions on what procedure will help my loose skin situation. After losing 90 pounds and having two children. I've had 5 consults and a variety of recommendations. It is making me so confused on which doctor I should go with. Should I get a standard tummy tuck, extended tummy tuck, or body lift? Will lipo of my outer thighs help me or make my skin worse?
Answer: Consultations You have had 5 consultation, so more over the Internet will not be helpful. Go with the surgeon who made the most sense, whom you liked best, and whose photos you liked.

Answer: Tummy Tuck & Liposuction Thank you for your questions and photos. A tummy tuck will address excess skin & repair of the abdominal muscle. The abdominal wall can be weakened after pregnancy and (or) significant weight gain & loss. By repairing the muscle, not only does the appearance of your abdominal area improve, but your core strength as well. The repair of the muscle will cinch your waist like an inner corset, which will accentuate your curves. Liposuction will remove excess fat from unwanted areas with some skin retraction. Your expectations and health will dictate the best procedure(s) for you. I suggest a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to go over the options that best address your goals. Best of luck!

Answer: 360 Tummy Tuck + Thigh Lift Hello, Thank you for sharing your doubts with us. In your case, the flaccidity is remarkable, so I recommend a circumferential abdominoplasty to improve the appearance of your buttocks as well or if your interest is the abdominal region, a classic abdominoplasty would give you excellent results to improve your frontal appearance. In relation to liposuction on your hips, rather I recommend a thigh lift which would greatly improve your hips.

Answer: Which procedure should I get after weight loss? Hello @Mommyonamission05 thank you for your question and showing you pictures. It is important to take into account your expectations in order to make a complete surgical plan. Most likely because of the pregnancies not only the skin got lax but also an abdominal diastasis was generated, the latter must be solved with a muscular plication as well as take out excess of skin and relocation of the navel. You can also consider improving the shape and volume of the buttock. The best course of action is to consult one or several board certified plastic surgeons for more information and recommendations. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS.
