Should I Get a 2nd Opinion on my Tummy Tuck? (photo)

Thanks for including photos, but unfortunately, these do not show your abdominal scar, and do not show what exactly was done around your belly button. Did you have a muscle plication? What exactly are your concerns? Do you want the tummy to be flatter, or the skin tighter, or the umbilicus more sculpted?

What I see from the photos is not "horrible" but it clearly does not live up to your expectations. Was your surgeon an American Board of Plastic Surgeons-certified plastic surgeon? If so, he or she has the training and expertise to answer all of the questions posed above. If not, you may not be able to get answers you want to hear. Perhaps a second and third opinion from ABPS-certified plastic surgeons is warranted. I live in your area, and would be happy to see you without cost to try to address your concerns if whomever did your surgery cannot. Best wishes!

Thank you for the question.

Unfortunately, it is not possible to give you good advice based on the pictures posted. I will suggest that you communicate your questions/concerns with your plastic surgeon who is in the best position to rule out complications and advise you.

Generally speaking,  2 months out of your surgery is much too early to evaluate the end results of tummy tuck surgery;  it may take up to one year to be able to  to so fairly.

Best wishes.

Difficult to say with your pictures. If you are very uncomfortable with your results discuss your concerns with your surgeon. If your questions are not answered seek another opinion. It takes a good 6 months for final results, I would advise giving it longer before panicking. 

Sorry to say your posted photos show nothing unusual. But if you think a second opinion is warranted than get one. Please post the follow up. 

Your photos don't show anything terribly wrong, however it is always best to get a second opinion if you are unsure as to how things should be after tummy tuck, and your surgeon is not able to put you at rest.
