I got a tummy tuck nine years ago with muscle repair. I've always felt like my upper abdomen has bulged, but it has gotten much much much worse over the years. Would liposuction help this or am I going to require another tummy tuck which I do not want.
Answer: Liposuction Thank you for submitting your question and including photos! You would be a great candidate for liposuction of the upper abdomen as that would decrease fullness. I recommend scheduling a consult with a board certified plastic surgeon like myself so we can create a surgical plan based on your goals.

Answer: Liposuction after TT Dear Herniamomma, it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. In some cases liposuction after TT can help improve the results. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

Answer: Abdomen An examination is needed to be certain, but based on your photos, liposuction would probably do well for you. Should your muscle need more tightening, nonsurgical EMSCulpt could be very helpful.

Answer: Tummy Tuck Hello, my name is Dr Burko, and I am a Plastic Surgeon at SY Aesthetics in NYC. It's possible that you have recurrent rectus diastasis after your previous surgery. This can be due to weight gain or pregnancy after your original tummy tuck. It's best to see a plastic surgeon for a consultation to determine your best treatment plan. If you have rectus diastasis, then liposuction alone will not flatten your abdomen.
