I'm going to be reaching out and scheduling consultations with local surgeons, but I would be curious to know about whether doctors think I would be a better candidate for tummy tuck vs. liposuction in several areas (upper and lower abdomen, back flanks, etc.). I weigh 200lb, 5'7, almost 30yo female and don't plan on having kids anytime soon. Thank you!
I'm thinking about getting a tummy tuck. I have 3 kids and that awful hanging tummy flab that won't go away. I'm 5'9", 51, weighing about 190 lbs, and used to be in really great shape. Now it's just coming off so slowly and I really want to look nice for myself. How much weight should I lose before the prcedure? Can I also have Liposuction at same time to underarms and just get rid of the flab that won't go away?
Im wondering if visceral fat will keep a bulge. The internet says I have It and cant obtain a flat stomach with a tummy tuck but I can make the upper part of my abdomen pretty small with sucking in so Im not sure. Female 56 200 lbs 3 kids (1 vag & 2 c sections)
26 year old how has had weight loss surgery twice . First VSG (2017) Had a revision on June 2022 . Current weight is 193 Ht: 5'3 .My weight has been stable for about 4 months . My body is no longer losing pounds but I do look smaller in size. I am in interested in tummy tuck and possible Lipo 360. I have not had any kids , and do not see it happening any time soon. Should I opt out of a tummy tuck since I have not had any kids.
Slightly confused now after my last consult and wishing Id asked more questions. Dr recommended ETT, lipo to flanks and full back. After asking if I would be flat. He answered by stating that if I wanted my waist to be smaller, Id need a FDL. I didnt want an FDL so asked if Id still look good with just ETT. He said yes. Now Im conflicted whether Ill still look better with a ETT. I dont expect to be tiny, Im 55.5 and 195lbs. Will I look okay with just ETT? Or wasting my money?
Ive lost 68lbs and my weight is very consistently 200lbs exactly. Ive sent my pictures to a couple plastic surgeons and they have turned me down for being over the bmi. Under all this fat I have a very athletic build and I gain muscle quickly. So I feel like there shouldnt be an issue with my getting a tummy tuck at my stable weight of 200lbs. Would I like to be smaller? Yes. But I also think the Timmy tuck would give me that boost I need to lose more weight! Please advise!
