Whether you’re eager to see the impact of your hard work or you’re still losing weight and just planning ahead, it’s helpful to know the best time to schedule your body contouring surgery.
Why Timing Matters After Weight Loss
Body contouring procedures like tummy tucks, liposuction, or breast surgeries are most successful when they’re performed after your weight has stabilized.
In most cases, that means waiting at least six months after reaching your goal weight. This gives your skin and tissues time to adjust naturally and helps ensure your surgical results will last a long time.
If your weight is still fluctuating, or if you’re planning future weight loss or pregnancy, it’s a good idea to delay surgery. Stable weight improves your results and reduces your risk of complications during and after the procedure.
