Tummy Tuck: Prices, Photos, Reviews, Info, Q&A

The loose skin the ideal weight a good body contour dictates the only answer is a tummy to restore most of your contour with one scar you will love the potential results (James R. Cullington, MD, Austin Plastic Surgeon)

I think you would benefit from a tummy tuck to correct the skin laxity that commonly develops after pregnancy. I do not think liposuction would be a good option alone because you have very minimal fat.  (Arun Rao, MD, Mexico Plastic Surgeon)

The price of a beautiful flat abdomen, tight skin, beautiful small and youth navel, and smaller waist, will be: having a very low scar.

Tummy Tuck that will be hidden underneath a bikini. All of the most valuable things over this world have its own price and will be worth it. (Laura Carmina Cardenas, MD, )

You are very young and very attractive pretty woman who has to be enjoying life and your body to your convenience.  Do not be afraid of having a Tummy Tuck because this will be the only procedure that may transform positively your abdomen and body in general, because there is NOT a magic procedure (liposuction, vaser, laser, massage, cream, exercise, machines, etc) that will eliminate the saggy skin and stretch marks your pregnancy left.

If you are finished having children, you would be a good candidate for a tummy tuck. However, if you plan to loose any more weight, please do so before the surgery.

A tummy tuck could remove the loose skin and overhanging skin, tighten your lower muscle, and give you a much flatter abdomen. I would suggest finding a board certified plastic surgeon in your area and discuss the procedure, risks, and expectations. (Connie Hiers, MD, San Antonio Plastic Surgeon)

A tummy tuck my only option?

The joy of bringing a new life into this world does have some residual effects! Best to obtain ONLY IN PERSON opinions because I can not tell on the posted tummy tuck photos before and after if you are a candidate for a tummy tuck. (Darryl J. Blinski, MD, Miami Plastic Surgeon)

You are still in great shape and know that a tummy tuck, will definitely get you back to your old body. I recommend a tummy tuck, liposuction in the waist and fat transfer to the buttocks. (Jaime Campos Leon, MD, Mexico Plastic Surgeon)

Who is a candidate for a tummy tuck?

Do you plan to have more kids? If so, hold off on surgery until you’re done with kids and make it a goal to be within 10-15 lbs of your goal weight. And, YES! You are an excellent candidate for a TT, along with liposuction of your hips and flanks to circumferentially sculpt your figure.

A full/standard TT will allow for removing the excess skin which willprobably include all the skin from your belly button to your lower hip crease. The upper tummy skin wouldbe brought down to your hip crease and sewn into place. Your belly button will be repositioned. Tightening the abdominal muscles will further snug up your waist. (Ellen A. Mahony, MD, Westport Plastic Surgeon)

Ideal Situation for a tummy Tuck

The ideal situation for a tummy tuck is for the patient to be in good shape and be at a stable weight. A stable weight is one where you are exercising regularly and eating a comfortable regimen that can be repeated without feeling deprived.

As for your body, it is obvious that you could benefit from a High Lateral tension abdomenoplasty with liposuction of abdomen, hips, flanks and back. (Robert M. Freund, MD, New York Plastic Surgeon)

Excellent candidate for a Tummy Tuck!

You actually look like an ideal candidate for a Tummy tuck. You have very pronounced skin flaccidity and your body could completely benefit from this surgery. A Tummy Tuck (associated with some liposuction to the back and flanks) will reduce your waist diameter and improve your body silhouette (not to mention the obvious flat tummy).

The important thing you need to know is that you have enough skin to have a really low scar, which I personally consider a MUST in patients like you that have enough skin to achieve this (click on the web reference to have an idea of what I mean).

The only way I would recommend you to not have this procedure now, is if you have any intention of having more children. Abdominoplasty will not prevent you from getting pregnant or harm the baby, but it will ruin the surgery and make it harder to achieve good outcome if you were to undergo this procedure in the future. (Luis A. Fernandez Goico, MD, Dominican Republic Plastic Surgeon)

You are a perfect candidate for a Tummy Tuck in order to get rid of the saggy skin on your abdomen and this procedure is done through a very low incision in order to be easily hidden under a bikini.

I definitely will recommend also a muscle repair in order to achieve a flatter abdomen and mainly a nice, small and tapered waist to create a very curvaceous result. I will recommend to lose some weight prior surgery mainly for SAFETY and reduce substantially risk of complications.  (Laura Carmina Cardenas, MD, Mexico Plastic Surgeon)

Would a Tummy Tuck Give me Good Results?

It does appear from the photos you have provided that a tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) could really improve your abdominal contour. After having two children, along with some weight loss as you mention, it is very common to be left with redundant abdominal skin and laxity of your abdominal muscles. An abdominoplasty will remove the extra skin and tighten up these muscles to provide you with a flatter, more youthful appearing abdomen. Definitely, meet with a board certified plastic surgeon to find out more! (Joshua Cooper, MD, FACS, Seattle Plastic Surgeon)
