Answer: How to Know if Stretch Marks Above Belly Button Will Come Out with a Tummy Tuck There has to be enough skin from the breast bone down to the beginning of the stretch marks to cover the entire vertical distance down to the mons. Many women do not have enough loose skin to do this, so some stretch marks just above and lateral will not come out. They can be treated after surgery with Lux 1540 erbium laser, and that will improve but not get rid of them. Just looking at the picture submitted, I would never anticipate that all the stretch marks would be removed as they extend quite a way above the belly button. In this patient from the front view, you can see how high the stretch marks go. It looks like the upper line of skin removal could be 3-4 inches above the belly button, and it is amazing how much further the upper skin will go down, when the muscle is tightened and it is almost a straight line form breast bone to pubis. In this case that would help a lot but would be insufficient to get all the stretch marks out.

Answer: Tummy tuck You are definitely a good candidate for a tummy tuck with muscle tightening. Many of the stretch marks will be removed with the surgery but some will,remain. If you go on a consult, the surgeon can draw out exactly which stretch marks would be removed.

Answer: Tummy tuck will not remove stretch marks above the belly button Thank you for your question and photograph. A tummy tuck will remove stretch marks from the umbilicus or belly button down. However stretch marks above the belly button usually cannot be removed with a tummy tuck.

Answer: Stretch marks Be encouraged. You are a perfect candidate for a Tummy tuck and a tight muscle repair on order to get rid of the saggy skin on your abdomen and all of the stretch marks below the navel will be gone a 100% But it may be possible to remove some more stretch marks above navel, but only after a vivid consultation can tell. Muscle repair will help to achieve a flat abdomen and tapered waist. Incision placed very low will make it very easy to hide under a sexy bikini. Dr. Cardenas

Answer: Tummy tuck removes some stretch marks The stretch marks that you have below your belly button will be removed with a tummy tuck. But any that are above the belly button will remain. The skin will be pulled down, but the stretch marks will still be there.
