What do i do to get rid of loose skin from having a baby?

Tummy tuck: Sometimes some of the loose skin bounces back. I would have you wait at least a year after having had the baby. This gives you ample time to lose the weight and for your body to recover. Ultimately, a tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) can help you tighten your abdominal muscles and get rid of excess skin. This is a great operation for the right candidates!

Tummy: Your tummy should be back to normal around 3 months after delivery. A good diet and exercise program is the best way to reclaim your pre-pregnancy figure. If your skin stretched and has not shrunk back down you may be a candidate for a tummy tuck where the excess skin is removed and the abdominal muscles are tightened. I wait 6 months after a c-section to perform a tummy tuck.
