WORTH IT$6,000

Full TT 6/08. I know my scar is to high (where my pubic hair is above my underware line) as well as my belly button and my pubic mons has a buldge to it. My stomach is really tight and dont see where the Dr is going to get the skin to pull down???? I also feel a pulling in my pubic area and groin when leaning back , my underware go down in the front and my mons comes up when leaning backwards. The scar is above my underware line and rides the rim of my jeans... Can this be fixed? Please help

I also think you look great! I have a high scar too (plus hyperpimentation) and nevertheless I prefer this to the belly I used to have...and I think you have a completely new figure! Just look at the before and after, now it's much much better!

I think it looks great.The inscion is a litle high but it looks great.The pulling and tugging you feel is normal.I felt the same thing.It wil loosen up in time.The scar is fixable.You would have to wait for awhile until you are completely healed.I would talk to your doctor more about it.I don't think you need to change anything it looks great.

it does seem to be a bit higher than it should be, but your figure looks GREAT! Once the scar fades and it will, you will be fine. I wouldn't pay for any xtra surgeries. Also for anyone who has never had a scar it can be traumatic. i've lots of them and i would be glad to have your figure.

I also agree, you look great! The higher belly button gives you a younger appearance and the scar can be fixed.

love the flatness of my belly but there is always a price to pay....
High scar
ugly bellybutton scar
protruding pubic mons
tight belly with pulling in groin area

-- Updated on Oct. 26, 2009: 1 yr post FTT. Hate my scar around belly button. It looks like the top of a tied balloon! scar is circular with small dots going around it. I also feel that the bb was placed to high( can it be lowered?). My TT scar is very high as well and I feel that the skin is very tight, I feel a pulling in my pubic area when I reach above or bend backwards and have a protuding pubic mons( whats up with that)... Can this all be fixed. Sick over this.

Well, xcotic I would not go to that PS. While her tummy looks great the scar is to high.

This is all so helpful. If I ever decided to go for a tummytuck I would now know to ask exactly where they would cut. I often wish the docs would provide pics of bad, mediocre, less than perfect results along with good. Might be more honest?? Even with the scar being high and the bb high also, the result is an improvement overall.

You look great! Yes your scar is abit high and i no how you feel i had full tummy tuck with lipo 7 wks ago and i feel my scar is high and its higher on one side to the other and pops out of my underware seeing my doctor in march cant wait. Your belly (before)is alot like mine before my op but yours looks alot flatter at the top than mind after your op,do you think in time it will go down i am so worried about having a top belly ha ha

I too have been considering revision if things do not change. Just be very careful! I have been doing alot research on it and several dr's have spoke to me regarding my full TT and they said. Lowering + Scar revision is not a easy task and isn't taken lightly. Some PS won't even attempt to fix something thats already been done because the chance of making things alot worse is a big chance. I would only absolutely go through with this when it is completely unacceptable to you personally and you cannot live with what they have done.
