It’s being rumored that celebrity moms are scheduling tummy tucks at the same time that they are scheduled to have a C-section performed. This is thought to save on cosmetic surgery costs and to avoid the extra bulging and skin stretching by having the C-section and tummy tuck in the 8th month of pregnancy.
According to sources on the Internet, some of the media starlets are undergoing a tummy tuck procedure in conjunction with a C-section in order to immediately regain their figures. These sources claim that individuals such as Britney Spears and Gwen Stefani have used a C-section and tummy tuck combination procedures to regain their photogenic figures.
At this point the C-section and tummy tuck rumors are just that. Not one celebrity has admitted to having these two procedures performed in conjunction. So, is the C-tuck rumor completely false or are celebrities using tummy tuck procedures and caesarean-sections in this manner?
It should be important to note that plastic surgeons and obstetricians do not recommended having a c-section and tummy tuck performed at the same time. The reason rests with the fact that having a tummy tuck in conjunction with a caesarean-section leads to more surgery, with a higher risk of infection, than is necessary.
It is for this reason that it is usually not recommended for a woman to have a c-section and tummy tuck – but rather be aware that c-sections should not be performed more than 1 week prior to the due date of the baby’s birth. Since anything else would put the child at risk – these procedures are probably not performed.
So, it’s safe to say that the C-section and tummy tuck rumors are simply just rumors. A tummy tuck can come later.
