Foxy wrote:Good point, well made, but a tummy tuck involves tightening up muscles too. It's not only the skin that is stretched in obesity, the muscles are stretched too. Admittedly, I was primarily thinking of how far skin can stretch before it splits, as it can do in pregnancy - the skin becomes so thin that it can begin to tear. If a previously overweight person is left with excess skin after weight loss, has it removed, then regains a lot of weight, was interested to ponder on whether a similar thing can happen.
