Tummy Tuck or Mini Tummy Tuck

Tummy tuck after weight loss. I didn't need a full tuck. I did a panniculectomy which removes the skin only. My stomach muscles were actually in great shape after having 3 kids, being 50 (at that time), losing 100 lbs. and having gone through Cushing's disease. I have a light, thin scar from hip to hip. Best thing I've ever done and I could care less about the scar, just glad to have that skin gone. I can wear things now without that bulge at the bottom of my belly. I still have 40 to 50 lbs. to go, but my abdominal skin won't be an issue now.

Why has this been flagged as Spam??? He's not selling Tummy Tucks!! Yeeesh!

I had one when I was having other surgery. They took about 2 ft of skin. I'm cut hip to hip and I do have some scars. It's been 4 years. The scars are most visible where I've had the drain. It is totally worth it though because I had the 'butt in the front' from my son. The only thing is, if you gain weight again, it does stretch and hurt and you get a weird shape.

I don't think you will need a tummy tuck. Lose weight first than start heavy lifting and increase your protein intake. I am talking based on my husband's experience !

Id wait till you get there and decide. Laser therapy can be an option too so you dont have to go under the knife. Just consult with a dr about it and see if your needs can be met that way.

I've have several friends who lost over 100 lbs and didn't need any surgery for saggy skin. It depends on how you lose the weight.

Id say laser. But thats because im afraid of getting cut open. Ive had my breast done but its such a tiny cut. Lose thw weight and give your skin the 6 months it takes to firm up and then consider laser or a tuck. If you dont give your skin time then you may be wasting your money on a treatment to do what your skin wouldve done naturally with a little time.
