Tummy tuck with massive flap

Before tummy tuck

Hi! Anybody here get a tummy tuck while they were still somewhat large? I intend to lose more weight, but I’ve got a massive uncomfortable flap from carrying twins that I want to get rid of. Top; 292 / current 252 / goal 200. My purpose is comfort, not sexiness.

    You could have the skin only removed for now. And when you get closer to your goal, have the muscles tightened and even more skin removed.

    Hi ya heres my b4 n after…I decided not to wait until I lost more weight because having the large tummy and huge over hang was really uncomfortable and I found it difficult to fit clothing..unless you want to have a bikini body afterwards then it might b best to loose yr weight first….but for me im still big but I generally feel physically better. Still haven’t gone down a pants size due to the swelling in hips and legs but no probs it will go down eventually

    If you do decide to have procedure ask yr ps for a fleur di lis or the corset / trunkoplasty as these will remove the max amount of skin n fat possible…ive seen some bigger ladies who have just had a normal tt and they look like they have a little pot belly

    Before surgery I had so many problems trying to lose weight. So I went through surgery and had 17 pounds removed (tt and mr) I do not regret it for one day. Everyone was telling me to wait but I knew that I needed this. Glad I went with my heart and didn’t listen to the naysayers. This was when I was just almost two weeks po. I went into surgery weighing 240. Today I am at 215!

    Te how tall are you? And what was your starting and 5 wks post tummy tuck op weight?

  7. Zoe says:

    Alisha , how tall are you?

  8. Te says:

    170 cm tall…120kg pre tummy tuck op (7kg of tummy removed) dont know what my weight is now im to scared to look because of the swelling in my hips n legs

  9. Te says:

    Personally I think you could just have normal tummy tuck as you dont have much fat above yr belly button…either way you will look really good after yr tt

  10. Zoe says:

    how old are you? I’m 44.

  11. Zoe says:

    Did you lose a lot of weight pre-surgery of tummy tuck?

  12. Te says:

    I would loose weight but my tummy would never really get any smaller which is why I just decided to have the tummy tuck

  13. Te says:

    250 when I went in I’m now 220 well last week 220. But I also had a body lift.. 15 lbs of skin was removed. I just had mine 1 month ago.. Even if I’m swollen I love my results .

    Jessica, where did you get it done?

  15. Jessica says:

    Houston Tx

  16. Jessica says:

    I have been to many PS in the Houston area some of ” the best” but in my opinion he is the best and I was willing to pay the price$$ and I was not going to let anyone else touch me..

  17. Zoe says:

    Wow-every doctor in the states that I’ve talked to won’t touch me if I’m over 200, even though I’ve been under general many times and never had a problem.

  18. Jessica says:

    My plastic surgeon is confident in his work.. I asked him if I should loose weight he said ” what for ? I’m going to cut it all off and suck it out ” I sent you a PM Zoe

  19. Jessica says:

    It’s about about going under.. In my opinion it in his ability to give you the results you want..
