I am wondering if there are surgeons who do pro bono surgery for the extra skin hanging off the bottom of stomachs. I have 5 kids and am left with this horrible issue. It is forever infected and inflamed.

Don't know. You might want to contact Talk Show Hosts - Maury, Oprah, Tony Danza, Ellen etc to see if they could possibly help / assist you with this matter.

Surgery is the only way.Cosmetic Surgery (including facelift/ breast enhancement tummy tuck./lipo) is very cheap in India.There is one company that is very famous in India that arranges cosmetic surgery for foreigners in India.They are called the Forerunners Healthcare.I read a lot about them in the Newspapers and about their patient stories.I have also read that they arrange financing for international patients as cosmetic surgery is not covered by insurance in USA or by the stinking NHS in UK
They also have photos pasted of their International patients.You can checkout their website.The cost savings are incredible.As a doctor i personally believe that your surgery can be easily handled in India as the quality of healthcare available here is simply best in the world.The surgeons are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star .
My cousin got her cosmetic surgery for breast implant surgery and she is more than very happy with the results.SHe is all praise for this forerunners healthcare companyfor the services they provided her.She paid just 30% of the cost what she was quoted in USA and it was like a wonderful vacation for her.Excellent stay,food, best surgeons-she just couldnt stop talking.hope this helps.I think she paid only 4000$ for the breast implant surgery for which she was quoted 9000 $ in USA.

I heard that most health insurance companies will okay it if it is causing infection and rashes. Just keep documenting it and check with your insurance agency.
here is one link ref: Insurance coverage
