Hi! I don't know if this helps but I am about 7 months post-op and have my consult for a tummy tuck May 10th. I am definetly ready for one. Good Luck-

I have been told by three plastic surgeons that one year is recommended so the body can heal from the previous surgery. Good luck.

I had my TT & Hernia Repair at 6 1/2 months after my WLS. I wanted to get back to my life, and get all this taken care of before. I am now working after a long 4 years of being disabled and terminal from by co-morbidities. I lost out of my disablity status!!! Good Luck --

I had tummy tuck with hernia repair on 3/28/01, exactly 7 months and 76 pounds after my original WLS surgery. The surgeons removed 10 pounds of excess apron skin.
