Aww thats an excellent idea! I was told pre-bypass that they would not fund any skin removal surgery. I was told that if I need need excess skin removed - I would have to fund that yself...seems that if they could, they could have mine and do my op for free, in exchange for my skin! lol

when i had my t/tuck they asked if i would sign a form so they could use the skin to do research on it so they can help others, they said if i didnt want to then they would respect my wishes, i signed the form as the skin would of only been distroyed anyway so its a good thing to be able to help others in what ever way we can.

3 years ago my father was a small aircraft which crashed and exploded on impact.
He suffered bad burns to his face, chest, arms and hands.....(imagine Simon Weston from the Falklands battleship fire), mainly as he was burnt twice as he went back in to rescue the passenger.
Alot of his initial skin grafts used 'cavader' skin so I think this idea of donating our skin after plastics is a fantastic idea! Whenever I get t the stage of plastics I will definately be ticking the 'yes' box!

They could have mine with pleasure , think they would have to avoid the stretch marks !

I think its a fantastic idea if it was at all possible.I'd happily donate my skin to help people like your Dad ,Karma as Liz says if it's getting binned anyway it would be great to think it could be put to good use x

What an amazing man yr Dad must be. I never knew of this skin donation, I think it's a great idea.

That's really awesome, if I'm lucky enough to afford or qualify for tucking I will absolutely agree to that, it seems silly not too if it's put to such good use. I daresay they'll get reams off me lol

God thats a great idea they could have mine any time . Over here they do give you funding for the removal of the loose skin but you still have to go to England to get it removed . I still cant understand why they cant do it here madness . Take care .
