Tummy Tuck Com

Question:

I will be doing a face lift and tummy tuck within the next two to three weeks. Anyone else here undergone these procedures? It should make me feel a world better and a lot of years younger. I will be having the same surgeon that does Mary Tyler Moore and she is a diabetic. Any suggestions?
 

Answer:

I have a friend who took up running and after 6 months or so he had what appeared to be multiple chins at his waste line. His doc recommended a tummy tuck and he now looks terrific. No more sludgy tummy with multiple ripples. No amount of exercise above what his running and training gives him could have accomplished the job.

in my mid 30s, I finally got down to goal weight. Most of the doctors I questioned would not do it unless the weight loss had been sustained for two years. It wasn't a diabetic issue -- I was in good control without meds for more than a year at that time. They simply warn that it is a waste of money and possible health problems if we gain the weight back again. I don't know if they still feel that way. I kept it off only about two years anyway, so it's a moot point in my case.

Seems to me that once we've lost the weight, though, taking that excess flap stuff off might help by removing those empty fat cells that are just waiting to be filled up again, no?

At my age I'd only consider plastic surgery if they could take my protruding tummy and swivel it around to add to my flat fanny!! Of course a face lift would be nice, but I don't have the patience for the recovery period
