There are a few reasons why the tummy tuck is most often never done at the same time as the gastric bypass;

1. After gastric bypass you will continue to experience weight loss and then a year or two later you would need to have the excess skin removed again.

2. The wound is less likely to experience infection if it is performed when the patient has already healed from the gastric bypass procedure.

Along with a host of other reasons but primarily you want to reduce infection and ensure that you don’t have to repeat the procedure.

But most everyone that undergoes gastric bypass should consider a tummy tuck for hygenic, aesthetic, and other health reasons. The excess skin could get in the way of performing normal exercise and also be a mental focal point that could keep the patient from “feeling good” about their bodies.

When considering a tummy tuck after gastric bypass it’s important to view before and after photos from the plastic surgeon who is going to perform the operation (sometimes it’s necessary to go to a different plastic surgeon than the one who performed the gastric bypass). Along with before and after photos you’ll want to view their credentials and maybe even speak to some past patients and see how satisfied they were with the level of care and service the doctor provided.

Overall, if you are considering a tummy tuck after gastric bypass you want to do your homework and make sure you have waited long enough, meaning you are completely healed from the gastric bypass and that you have lost the majority of the weight that you had planned on losing because you don’t want to have to have 2 tummy tucks.
