Answer: TT lined up how much will I go down That is a very good question that we frequently hear when talking to patients considering a tummy tuck. Most patients will lose in the 3 to 7 pound range after a tummy tuck and liposuction. However some patients may lose 8 to 12 pounds if they have had a massive weight loss after bariatric surgery or lifestyle change. Based on your photos I would expect you to be in the 3-4 pound range. However, don’t be surprised or discouraged when you initially look at the scales after surgery because it may go up for a few weeks due to swelling. Best of luck on your journey.

Answer: How much weight can I expect to lose after a tummy tuck and lipo of my sides? Although your results would be fantastic after a tummy tuck and lipo, you will not find you will lose a lot of weight. Skin and fat do not have a lot of weight to them. They occupy space, volume, not weight. So you will look like you lost weight after, but not typically notice a lot on the scale!
