alteration 0 Posted October 20, 2008 Hello all, I was told that some places (maybe Stratx) will do the Tummy Tuck for all the bariatric patients compliments of our insuance. I couldnt believe what i was hearing from her but apparently she has done her homework. I had my surgery on Oct. 1st, so i have ways to think about that. I just wanted to let everybody know so that they can inquire if interested.:tongue2: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jetsy62 0 Posted October 21, 2008 You have to have a significant amount of skin for this to work, but a friend that had bariatric surgery had a Tummy Tuck done free of charge at a hospital that specializes in burn patients. They use the skin for grafting. I figure what the heck. All that excess skin might as well go for some good. I don't know the requirements as far as how much skin etc. but when I get to that point I am going to look into it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
