Welcome to the new tummy tuck revision forum

I had a full TT but two months post op there is suddenly lots loose skin in the upper half. Dr agrees it's a problem. Has anyone here dealt with this? A reverse tummy tuck seems to be one way to get some improvement but at this point, if I am going to have a scar across my chest, I am wondering if redoing the tummy tuck from below, closing the existing belly button opening and then making a new one is an option. My sense is that pulling the skin down may no longer be an option but I have to ask. Thanks.

I just found out today I will need a revision of sorts. I had my TT on 10-14-11, but I got MRSA and Staph. My stomach now has almost as much of an over hanging pouch as I did before the TT. I had full muscle repair and lipo as well. I will have to have my stretched out tummy skin removed, the infection cleaned out, and more lipo for fat necrosis I have. Hopefully it won't cost as much as the first surgery did! I paid $7,070.00 the first time!! I am very curious as to how much I will have to pay. I am using a different surgeon than I did the first time, the other guy I used was a quack! I am really hoping that this surgery won't be as hard to get over...with no muscle work I guess it will be. If any one has had a TT revision I would love to know what to expect!
