What Helps a Tummy Tuck Scar Result- Stitches on the Outer Layer or Glue?

I am going to have a tummy tuck and I know their will be a scar I was just wondering...as far as the best results when it comes to the outcome of your scar which is better for the outer layer of skin stitches or glue?
A: Best Scars are Achieved by Following Your Surgeons Advice

Hi there-

While I definitely have strong opinions about what gives the very best scars in my own patients, I know that my protocol may not be as effective within the framework of another surgeon's techniques, and vice versa.

It is therefore, not in your best interests to have anyone other than your chosen surgeon give you advice on what to do or not do with your incisions/scars. 

Furthermore, it's probably not fair and would make your surgeon sad to know that your were asking for advice online instead of trusting his advice.

Your best bet is to carefully find a surgeon you like and feel you can trust with your safety and happiness, and then follow all of their instructions for what works well in their practice.

Can I Still Get Surgery on my Belly Button if I Plan on Having More Kids?

I had my first baby 7 months ago. During pregnancy, my OB said I had a possible hernia and to keep an eye on my belly button. Now that I've lost all my baby weight, and have been working out,my stomach is getting flatter and flatter, but my belly button is officially a big outtie belly button. It feels extremely strange when I press on it, like little grains or pebbles underneath the skin and its uncomfortable. There is no way I can wait another 5 years to get surgery, can I get it done now????
A: Umbilical Hernia Repair with or without Tummy tuck

Hi there-

Dr. Aldea gives an excellent description of umbilical hernias, and I agree that while this is not an emergency, you should consider repair. 

If you are certain you will be having more children, I would not proceed with Tummy Tuck until your family is complete- so while these types of hernias can be easily repaired at the time of your tummy tuck, you may be better off if it will be that long before your family is complete having it repaired through a small incision around the belly button.

What Are The Different Types of Tummy Tuck? What Is Best For My Case After Massive Weight Loss?

I have heard the tummy tuck called extended, anchor cut, fleur de lis and full abdominalplasty. Can you explain the difference in these, when they are use and if there is a cost difference between them. Can any of them be used when having a lower body lift? I had open RNY bypass surgery six years ago and lost 150 lbs. I am now considering plastics to finish what I started. Tess
A: Many Options Exist for Weight Loss Patients

Hi there-

You are correct that many options exist for improvement in your body contour, and while (considering your excellent success losing weight) many of these options will undoubtedly be available to you, there is no doubt that one or two of the options will be better for you as an individual.

Which is best for you will depend on many things, including your current appearance, your goals for appearance, recovery, experience, etc

It is therefore not possible, and would be irresponsible, to recommend one option over another to you without the benefit of a careful consultation and physical examination.

Your best bet is to find a talented and skilled surgeon certified by The American Board of Plastic Surgery, and with a lot of experience in all of these options, and visit for a consultation.
