Stretch marks after tummy tuck

Tummy tuck is a great procedure to remove excess skin and fat from the lower abdomen and to tighten the muscle. If you had stretch marks high up in the upper abdomen, you would still have some residual stretch marks after the tummy tuck. Tummy tuck does not make new stretch marks.
