You may consider a tummy tuck if:

Diet and exercise haven't restored a firm abdominal contour

You experience discomfort or self-consciousness due to excess abdominal skin

You have stretched or separated muscles affecting posture or core strength

You want to combine it with other contouring surgeries (like liposuction or mommy makeover)

 Do's:

Follow your surgeon's post-operative care instructions carefully

Wear compression garments to reduce swelling

Take prescribed medications and attend follow-up visits

Eat a healthy diet and stay hydrated for faster healing

 Don'ts:

Avoid strenuous activities and heavy lifting for 4–6 weeks

Do not smoke or consume alcohol during recovery

Avoid sleeping flat on your stomach until cleared by your surgeon

Don't expect instant results, healing and skin adjustment take time
