What to expect from your Tumy Tuck Surgery
What it won't do:
A tummy tuck is not a substitute for
weight loss or an appropriate exercise
program.
Although the results of a tummy tuck are
technically permanent, the positive outcome
can be greatly diminished by significant
fluctuations in your weight. For this
reason, individuals who are planning substantial
weight loss or women who may be considering
future pregnancies may be advised to postpone
a tummy tuck.
Also, a tummy tuck cannot correct
stretch marks, although these may be removed
or somewhat improved if they are located
on the areas of excess skin that will
be excised, generally those treated areas
below the belly button.
