Already had a Tummy tuck, now weight loss surgery?

December 9, 2015
Asked By:Nityngale in Virginia Beach, VA

2 years ago I had a tummy tuck and breast augmentation. The mommy make-over to speak, however, now I am considering gastric sleeve to help with weight loss. I'm 5ft9in and just about 247. Not too bad, however, I struggle with type 2 diabetes and sleep apnea. I'm wondering how my previous tummy tuck will effect me getting this surgery?
