Answer: Abdominoplasty Candidate Thanks for your question. From your pictures, you seem to be a good candidate for a tummy tuck as long as you do not exceed the max Body Mass Index (BMI) limit for tummy tuck surgery which is 33 at our practice. The BMI is a combination of your height and weight. You can check your BMI using an online BMI calculator. Hope this helps. Please always consult with a board certified plastic surgeon. Take Care, Dr. Moises Salama, board certified plastic surgeon.

Answer: Tummy Tuck & Liposuction Thank you for your questions and photos. From your photos, you are a good candidate for a tummy tuck with liposuction. A tummy tuck will address excess skin & repair of the abdominal muscle. The abdominal wall can be weakened after pregnancy and (or) significant weight gain & loss. By repairing the muscle, not only does the appearance of your abdominal area improve, but your core strength as well. The repair of the muscle will cinch your waist like an inner corset, which will accentuate your curves. Liposuction will remove excess fat from unwanted areas with some skin retraction. Your expectations and health will dictate the best procedure(s) for you. I suggest a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to go over the options that best address your goals. Best of luck!
