Why Get A Tummy Tuck?

 

Ask yourself "why get a tummy tuck?" Everybody has their own reasons. The big question being, is the reason good enough to justify the time, cost and risk involved with the operation.

 

WHAT ARE YOUR REASONS FOR WANTING A TUMMY TUCK?

1. My reason to have a Tummy Tuck is to remove sagging skin from weight loss. The author's personal reason - I had a Tummy Tuck last year. More than just a Tummy Tuck. My Tummy Tuck was combined with a Thigh Lift operation where they cut and removed sagging skin from my front, sides and back (almost a complete body lift). My main reason for having a Tummy Tuck is to have a reward. It was hard. For over two years I exercised daily, ate only nutritional foods and lost over 150 pounds. (See how I lost weight). What I ended up with is sagging belly skin hanging over my belt. Not much of a reward from all that hard work and discipline. My health was greatly improved and I felt fine from losing all that weight but the "appearance" results was disappointing. I was darned if I was going to leave it that way.

2. My reason to have a Tummy Tuck is to remove my tummy pouch and give me a flatter stomach. Tummy pouches and extra fat or skin around the stomach that won't go away with diet exercise is a common problem. Having a Tummy Tuck will give you a flatter, tighter and more contoured stomach. As long as you don't gain more weight later.

3. My reason to have a Tummy Tuck is embarrassment about the way I look. Embarrassment is a strong motivation for having a Tummy Tuck operation. Embarrassment about the way you look in a bathing suit, underwear, clothing or just standing in front of the mirror can lead to thoughts of a Tummy Tuck.

4. My reason to have a Tummy Tuck is to remove my stretch marks. Getting rid of stretch marks is of great concern to many women. Some stretch marks can be lessened by laser and non surgical treatments. If there is a lot of excess skin, a tummy tuck procedure can be performed to surgically remove the stretch marks.

5. My reason to have a Tummy Tuck is to improve the way I look in a bathing suit. Both men and women want to look good in a bathing suit. You can't do that with a bulging tummy. A Tummy Tuck will make your stomach look flatter while hiding the scars below the swimsuit line.

6. My reason to have a Tummy Tuck is to gain self confidence and self image. Self confidence and self image is what a Tummy Tuck is all about.

7. My reason to have a Tummy Tuck is to look and feel younger. Having a Tummy Tuck will give you a sleeker appearance. You will feel better about yourself and "feel younger". You may even have more spring in your step.

8. My reason to have a Tummy Tuck is to look better in clothing. Self explanatory.

9. My reason to have a Tummy Tuck is for sex and dating. This is a driving force for younger people wanting to have a Tummy Tuck (and yes even older people).

 

WEIGHT LOSS IS NOT A REASON TO HAVE A TUMMY TUCK!

Tummy Tuck is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin, fat cells and tightens muscles. It is not a weight loss method.
