Answer: Do I also need a tummy tuck? Hello @unknownlux, thank you for your question and showing your picture. Yes, a tummy tuck is necessary, more than for excess skin it is for diastasis in the abdominal area which is considerable. In regards to the front of the abdomen there are four variables that contribute to shape and contour. The variables are abdominal skin laxity, excess subcutaneous fat, muscle separation diastasis and lastly excess intra-abdominal or visceral fat. From what I see in the pictures your case has more to do with diastasis and for best results you may consider a lipectomy with high extended muscle plication in your surgery plan. For more information and recommendations is best to consult with one or several board certified plastic surgeons. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS
