I have PCOS and take Metformin. Will that prevent me from getting a tummy tuck and lipo?

The condition and medication should not preclude your surgery.  I would, however, have a preoperative visit with your internist who manages those conditions just for thoroughness.Best of luck!

Hello and thank you for your question.   Having PCOS on Metformin should not preclude you from an abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) or any other aesthetic surgery, as long as you have medical clearance from your primary care physician and your preoperative blood work, such as your glucose levels (which are effected by Metformin), are within normal limits.  In your consultation, be sure your plastic surgeon addresses all
your concerns and discusses the surgery details including the risks and
benefits of the procedure, recovery time, and post-operative course.  When
I perform an abdominoplasty, the necessary skin and fat is removed, the
abdominal muscles are tightened, a small umbilical incision is made that is not
externally visible, and a short, low waistline incision is designed to be
easily hidden by your underwear or bikini.  Please view plenty of
before-and-after pictures in real women (and not just computer-generated
images) who have a similar abdominal appearance to yours, and preferably
at different time frames (3 weeks out, 3 months out, etc) to more accurately
predict your own surgical outcome.  And lastly, I think the most important
component of the consultation is to establish a good connection with your
plastic surgeon.  If you don’t feel you have a good connection with your
plastic surgeon after your consultation, he/she may not be the best surgeon for
you.

Having PCOS should not preclude you from being able to undergo a tummy tuck.  As long as you are healthy and you get a clean bill of health from your PMD you should be ok.  Good luck.
