Q: Will full Tummy Tuck remove all scars on stomach?
Hi,
Thank you for you question.
It depends on the results you want to achieve. In your situation, you would get the best results from a full tummy tuck. This will address the areas above and below the belly button. It will get rid of most of the loose skin and tighten your abdomen. You may still need a little bit of lipo in a certain area. A fully tummy tuck should also get rid of my of your scarring. However, you will have to deal with a new scar from hip to hip.
The costs will vary from surgeon to surgeon. The procedures can be combined providing that you are in good health. This will lower the costs a little bit. You should definitely consult with your plastic surgeon to see if this is an option for you and which procedures exactly would be best for you.
Best regards,
Dr. Speron
