Can Breast Lift Tuck Upper Abdomen Loose Skin?

October 7, 2009
Asked By:deirdre1234 in greenville,sc

I had a Mini tummy tuck but should have had a full tummy tuck. Now, however, I'm afraid I have to little skin to do a full tuck and am left with saggy upper abdomen skin. My question is, would a breast lift actually help the saggy upper tummy skin? Can a surgeon just pull the skin up and cut off leaving a scar under the breast if necessary?
