Full Tummy Tuck with an Umbilical Float

Tags: umbilical hernia

In May I had and paid for an extended tummy tuck I found out yesterday that I had an umbilical float although my belly button was high, all of my skin laxity was above my belly button and has not been altered at all. I have been unhappy from the start with the results. My question now is how to rectify this situation because I am feeling taken advantage of (since I paid for the full tummy tuck) and I still have the same exact issue that I had going in. Please advise!

VIDEO explaining various tummy tucks (abdominoplasty)

The abdominoplasty options you discuss are somewhat confusing and vary among 3: full, extended or float. It is difficutl to understand what was done. A float does not equal a full. see video
