I had a second tummy tuck because I woke up one day very bloated and uncomfortable. When my surgeon went back in he said this wasnt really repair failure and everything was still in tact. This picture is before he resutured me again with two sutures. Im still bloated looking. Im wondering if this was repair failure because now they suspect maybe that bloat feeling all the time is endometriosis bloat and I need a hysterectomy. Please let me know your thoughts if this looked like failure. Thanks
I had a tummy tuck about seven months ago, and my doctor told me that I would have to have a vertical scar because I didnt have enough skin to remove. Instead, he tried to overcompensate, and now I have a rainbow scar that sits well above my panty line. When I asked him about it, he told me that there was nothing that he could do about it And I wanted to see if that was true
Had a tummy tuck 7 months ago. Had 4 different consultations with different surgeons. All keep saying my best option was tummy tuck with no Lipo. I never got a clear answer through any of them why couldnt have Lipo. Now the tummy tuck is done Im still not happy with my outcome of my shape. I wanted waist snatched, fat removed from lower side area etc, what do I need to ask for to get those kind of results. Lipo 360 maybe ?
Hi, I had a tummy tuck with 360 degree lipo and muscle repair 7 month ago, even 1 month post op I had a bulge above the belly button and above the scar on my abdomen they also left my bellybutton piercing when they done the TT so I now have this above my pubic area. LCan you please tell me what these lumps are and if Ive had a poor TT that should be corrected by the surgeon? When I lie down the bulges seem to disappear. Thanks
I had a tt revision on April 25, 2017. On August 9, 2017 I had a routine colonoscopy in which the doctor perforated my colon and caused me to become septic. My abdomen became very swollen and hard. This lasted several weeks. My infection was removed with a drain. Now my abdomen is back to the way it was before tt revision. Could the swelling from the perforation cause my muscle repair to be reversed? The picture I'm posting show my abdomen with swelling after botched colonoscopy.
had a tummy tuck in April of 2018 and due to failed results a revision was done October of 2018. It seemed to make a difference but now being 7 months post op I am seeing a lot of what could be swelling or fat. I am feeling like this was a total waste and trying to decide if I need to wait it out for at least a year or consider more lipo to improve my results. Some days it's not as swollen but more often than not it is.
I had a tummy tuck in January 2018. No muscle repair as I had no need for it. My problem was mostly loose skin and some fat deposits. I had good results for about 4 months then progress stopped and no further reduction in the pooch area was evident. My scar, where my old belly button must have been is lost quite unsightly. My ps is willing to fix it all, no charge. All thoughts are much appreciated.
