Loose Skin after Liposuction?!


Question:

Loose Skin after Liposuction?

I am 23, I had liposuction back when I was 18 on my stomach area. After healing, I was left with loose skin around my waist, its kinda weird cause its pretty flat when Im standing, but buldges out when Im sitting. My skin had already stretched a bit when I was overweight, but I think the skin also didnt heal property and tight after the surgery. I think this is common and the reason why people go back for a tummy tuck. I really really dont want any more plastic surgery or the big scar that comes with a tummy tuck, has anyone ever heard of stories of people who work out/ do sit-ups like crazy and tighten up this area naturally without a tummy tuck???


Answers:

Since you were previously overweight your skin has probably lost it's elasticity which is why no matter how many crunches you do will fix that.

I've had an abdominoplasty and have kept my bodyfat % below 13% for over 5 yrs and my skin has not regained its firmness. My stomach is completely flat and I even have a great set of abs but when I sit the skin still hangs slightly.
