I am 4 years post gastric sleeve surgery. I am 40 years old and in decent shape, 5’9” and large boned. After my sx I got down to 175ish and I’ve finally stabilized at around 200. I have always had a large upper belly (above the belly button), the epitome of a “muffin top”. When I sit, I look as if I am pregnant. I have never had children and my shape has driven to all of my motivations to exercise/sx. I really just want my upper belly gone, but to still look as good as possible afterwards too, of course.

Answer: Abdominoplasty Hello,Given your massive weight loss, you would not be the best candidate for a reverse tummy tuck. You will need a full downward pull that is performed with a regular tummy tuck, and may even benefit from a vertical excision as well (fleur de lys). Although it appears like you have a lot of skin above the belly button, it will transfer down well. Go visit a few ABPS certified/ASAPS member surgeons who specialize in body contouring surgery. Best of luck!
