Good candidate for mini tummy tuck? 24, no kids, major weight loss (Photo)

Hello; What needs to be done; should be decided after the consultation. When deciding which one is appropriate, Mini Abdominoplasty or Full Abdominoplasty; whether there is cracked skin in the lower abdomen, if it is very loose and folded in the upper abdomen; whether there is excess skin causing it; criteria gain importance. As it seems, your skin quality; is not in a very good condition. If we assume that; there are no serious cracks in the lower abdomen skin; in this case, the looseness in the upper abdomen skin; is important. If the looseness in the upper abdomen skin is too much and causes for folding; it will not be possible to achieve for sufficient tightening in the upper abdomen skin with mini abdominal stretching. In this case, I recommend for you Lipoabdominoplasty, not mini abdominal stretching. With Lipoabdominoplasty; both excess fat can be removed and a tight abdomen can be obtained. With Lipoabdominoplasty; the amount of surgical scar of mini abdominal stretching is; of course, different. While a surgical scar of approximately 20 cm remains in the lower abdomen in mini abdominal stretching; a surgical scar of approximately 40-45 cm remains in Lipoabdominoplasty.
Breast lift or arm lift can also be done in the same session. However, if three surgeries are done in the same session, it can cause for severe problems. Therefore, I advise for a combination of 2 surgeries at most.

Dear Milena195,
based on your photos, you look like a good candidate for a TT. Full tummy tuck should tighten your abdominal muscles and remove the excess skin. Flanks liposuction would give you a better shape. I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon because only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.
