gaining weight after excess skin surgery

What happens if you gain a large amount of weight AFTER excess skin removal surgery? What if you get pregnant after you are nipped and tucked?Does the skin even have enough elastic power to stretch back out? I've read about quite a few people getting their excess skin removed from ththeir stomach and was just curious if this has ever been a problem.

If you are planning pregnancy - I would wait till after having all the kids. I would hate to waste money for surgery only to have a tummy tuck wrecked by baby belly. I know I only gained 16 pd with my child, but the stretch marks was like a road map.
