Hello In 2023 I had an atypical stomach operation and I am not satisfied. I have been through 2 pregnancies, one of which was a twin pregnancy. The skin both above and below the bellybutton level was/is very loose/soft. I also got an umbilical hernia, and my stomach also seems to go inwards at the abdominal muscles. 1. Do you think I could have had a big tummy tuck? 2. Can I have a new operation, that Can make the result better? In relation to bellybutton, scar, loose skin, muscles?

Answer: Atypical tummy tuck revision. A revision abdominoplasty would improve your results and address yours concerns re: skin laxity, muscle separation and scar location. How low the scar can be placed might be limited by the previous surgery - if they removed skin above the belly button that could limit what we have left to work with. When you're sitting up there does seem to be adequate laxity to make a big improvement though. Get a few consultations from board certified plastics surgeons to ensure you're getting the best option for your situation.
