Tummy Tuck & Future Pregnancy: What You Need to Know
It depends on the type of tummy tuck performed. A mini tummy tuck, which involves a smaller incision and less extensive muscle repair, is less likely to affect future pregnancies than a full tummy tuck. A full tummy tuck, which involves a longer incision and more extensive muscle repair, may make it more difficult to become pregnant and increase the risk of complications during pregnancy.
It is important to discuss your plans for future pregnancy with your plastic surgeon before deciding on which type of tummy tuck is right for you.
