I am a 28 year old femal with an almost 2 year old son. I was 69kg when I fell pregnant and 169cm tall and put on at least 30kg. I am down to 63kg post pregnancy and lost the weight slowly. I notice my belly is still flabby particularly if I bend over it gets lots of wrinkles. I'm wondering if I am a candidate for a tummy tuck or if you think vaser and exercise will be enough to get rid of the flab? I must admit I have been slack on the exercise front but am getting back into it.

Answer: Liposuction, exercise or tummy tuck Hi there,Well done on the weight loss.The first piece of information we need is to understand whether you are considering further pregnancies at some point.The second is to examine you to understand whether you have a rectus diastasis. That is, whether some of your appearance is due to stretching of your muscle wall and not just the skin.i suspect most of your appearance (which given your 30kg weight loss is better that you think!) is due to skin loosening, and as such you are more likely to be a tt candidate than a lipo candidate.Having said that, my advice is to do no surgery or lipo for now. I think given you have not exercised, that a year of regulare exercise in the gym, you dont have to overdo it, but focus on your core and trunk area, may very well be all you need to be happy with your appearance. Your skin will never return to your pre pregnancy elasticity though. You must be realistic about this.all the very best.
