Hi.. I had done appendicitis surgery 2 years ago. I am a foodie. I am trying to reduce weight now. I had done almost everything to reduce weight. Diet and exercise helped me to some extent. But I could not reduce my tummy. My friend suggested a tummy tuck in McLean Clinic,Toronto. But I don’t know how far that will be effective. Is there any chance of getting back the fat after tummy tuck? I am worried. Any experiences? Kindly advice.
Answer: Tummy tuck Ideally, tummy tuck surgery is effective for removing excess skin and/or tightening the skin and underlying muscle. I would advise you to lose an excess weight prior to booking a tummy tuck consultation. Best, Dr. Nazarian

Answer: It is possible to do A tummy tuck after having an appendectomy should be possible. Regarding your weight, it’s always best to be at a stable one before your surgery. This allows you to have longer lasting results, because any excessive weight gain after your surgery will affect your tummy contour.

Answer: Is tummy tuck recommended after appendicitis surgery? Thank you for the question. Yes, you should be able to undergo tummy tuck surgery after appendectomy. Generally speaking, the “ideal” patient for tummy tuck surgery is one who has completed pregnancies, is psycho socially/emotionally/financially stable, has an excellent social support system surrounding him/her, is capable of arranging enough recovery time, does not smoke and who has reached a long-term stable weight. To maintain the best long-term results, you will want to maintain a healthy lifestyle and stable weight after surgery as well. I hope this, and the attached link, helps. Best wishes.

Answer: Tummy tuck after appendectomy Two years out from surgery is usually not an issue for a tummy tuck as the scars aren't an issue to perform the surgery. As far as weight gain we usually reccomend getting close to your ideal weight and maintaining that weight before surgery. Most patients don't gain weight after surgery as they are so excited and motivated to maintain their results afterwards.

Answer: Tummy tuck and appendicitis scars Thanks for this question:You should have no problems having a tummy tuck with an appendectomy scar. If this is traditional scar then its usually removed by the tummy tuck. If the appendectomy was done by keyhole surgery those scars are even less of a concern.
