Upper Abdomen Loose Skin? (photo)

    A reverse abdominoplasty after 3 to 6 months could reduce the upper abdominal fullness.  This involves making incisions under the breasts and pulling the loose skin and additional fat out.

Thanks for posting your photo. In all honesty, more photos would be helpful, specially a photo with you standing up. If you just had surgery, I don't think it's a good idea to be evaluating your result as if they are now final - it takes a year typically for a tummy to mature. You also had multiple operations which could increase the swelling and make things look worse. Discuss your concerns with your PS, but remember that the skin of the abdomen can only be tightened up to a certain point. In addition, the natural elasticity of your skin will persist and there is no way to make that completely go away - no matter how tight one pulls. Best wishes - Dr. Aldo.

Thank you for the question and picture. The picture  demonstrates what I would consider an unusual result after tummy tuck surgery. Unfortunately, without knowing more information,  is difficult to comment  specifically or fairly.

 In the event that you find your plastic surgeon is not a board-certified plastic surgeon, you may want to seek additional  opinions (2nd opinions)  with board-certified plastic surgeons in your area.

 It does seem to me that further surgery will be necessary to address the redundant skin and adipose tissue of the of the upper abdominal wall. Exactly what procedure will work best will depend on direct physical examination.

 Best wishes.
