TMI question, but I'm genuinely curious

This is probably a silly question, but here goes...do you lose pubic fat (FUPA) when you lose weight? If so, does it get saggy? Is it a problem or no? Sorry, genuinely curious about what to look forward to.

Yes yes yes......And you end up with a bit of residual fat and lots of extra skin. then you go to the plastic surgeon and during your tummy tuck they will fix it.

I have my surgery in January and cannot wait to get rid of all this loose skins.

Yes it does sag and have lots of skin. I had my Panni a year ago last month. My PS had said that it would be gone after my surgery. NOT He didn't do everything he had said he would. My insurance paid it but would not cover a Tummy Tuck. If my PS would have been honest I would have paid for the extra to get things taken care of. After my surgery, he said I needed LIPO and told me he would give me a deal on a breast lift ( we talked about it) and the Lipo for 6,000 to 7,000. I feel like he just was making sure of more work. LOL Seriously if you do get plastic's done go for the tummy tuck with muscle repair. Incidentally, my FUPA doesn't bother my hubby at all. He said more cushion for the pushin. LOL

Hi. I didn't have this problem. I am normal as before having my surgury.

Well, it appears that I will not be one of the lucky ones. I imagine there will be some sag and extra skin. Hopefully, insurance will cover plastics if it causes a big problem.

I do have sagging skin on my legs and belly and arm. I will consider plastic surgury when I feel stronger since I been having some medical issues but all will work out. Don't feel like you only one cause we all face through something. When the time comes then you can consider surgury. Wish you the best.

It's the only place I don't sag. ????
