Earliest for tummy tuck post Sleeve

I had my sleeve done in September 2014. I have great progress and less than 20lbs away from my goal weight. Has anyone done plastics before a year post op. I have chatted with 3 doctors and none of them have concerns. Anyone with experience of doing it 9 months post op.

I had plastics at 11 months post-op, although my surgeon would have been fine doing it at 9 months. If you are 20 pounds from goal, you should be fine for a tummy tuck. The general rule is to wait for plastics until you are within 15% of your goal weight. I was 153 when I had my first plastics surgery (abdominoplasty and breast lift/augment) and I am now 130...I see no negative effects from having lost 23 pounds since the date of the surgery.

As an extra note, you will LOVE your tummy tuck results. I have never had a flat stomach- I was chunky when I was a kid, so I always had a bit of an extra pooch. It is so awesome to never be worried about wearing things because you're stomach might look big. In fact, I routinely like to check out my stomach and my brand-new stitched together abs in whatever mirror I happen to be walking past at the time, lol.
