How Much Weight Can I Lose With A Tummy Tuck In NYC?

Many people consider a tummy tuck because they want to slim their waist and ditch their rolls. It’s a cosmetic surgery designed to help improve contours, but not for weight loss. Typically, post-bariatric patients see measurable weight loss after a tummy tuck just because their excess skin has significant weight. If you have intraabdominal fat to lose, ( behind the abdominal wall) you’ll need to reduce it the old-fashioned way with diet and exercise. Shedding extra pounds before your abdominoplasty will help ensure you get optimal results. A benefit to excess skin removal is that many people find it more comfortable to exercise once they’ve healed, and their workout clothing fits better.
