I haven't purged in over a year and am very healthy. I am scared if I do I will be turned down for surgery but want to be honest. Will they operate on someone who is healthy weight but is a former eating disorder sufferer?

Answer: Tummy Tuck A tummy tuck is a major surgical procedure and you should discuss and disclose a complete medical history to your surgeon, as you would for any general anesthesia procedure. A past history of bulimia should not affect the outcome.

Answer: Do I need to disclose to a cosmetic surgeon that I used to suffer from bulimia before going in for a tummy tuck consultation? Good day, Ideally its important to disclose all pertinent information to your surgeon, however they can not refuse you for this reason alone. If you are healthy, and eating well, a good healthy and safe weight, then there should be not reason to refuse you. What's most important is that you do not take on your old habbits because the vomiting post tummy tuck can undo the sutures that are below the skin and given and undesired result. Also a proper healthy diet is imperative for wound healing. Thank you
