Laser hair removal before or after lipo + tummy tuck?

June 2, 2020
Asked By:FactoryReset in San Diego, CA

I can't the only one a little worried that my tummy tuck will bring my 'down there' hair up too far, am I? Plus I'm sure I'll need to halt my waxing routine while scars heals and etc. Laser hair removal before or after lipo+tummy tuck? Does it mess up skin healing or elasticity if I do it before? Does it mess up scarring or other items if done after? What is the preferred order?
