Is It Safe to Get a Tummy Tuck After Having 3 C-Sections?

Not only is it safe to have a Tummy Tuck after a C-Section but it has many advantages: 

Such as:

1.being able to do a scar revision and if too high, put it at the hairline so tends to disappear,

2. Repairing any muscle damage below

3. Correcting the Diastasis Recti (separated muscles that occur with pregnancy) which will stregthen your tummy muscles and reduce your waist line

4. Repair any hernias (like umbilical hernia which is common after pregnancy)

5. Get your body back ! to your pre pregnancy (or better) shape

Thank you for the question.

The “pouch” you describe is very common problem area after C-section surgery.

Tummy tuck surgery is routinely and safely done after C-section surgery. Most well experienced plastic surgeons are able to deal with the scar tissue that remains after C-section surgery. By the way, your OB/GYN was likely referring to intraperitoneal (below the muscle) scar tissue.  This area is not exposed during tummy tuck surgery.

I hope this helps.
