Is the scar from a tummy tuck permanent or does it go away over time
Answer: Tummy tuck scars are permanent but worth it Although the scars from a tummy tuck are permanent, they fade over time and if placed low enough to be concealed they can be very inconspicuous. Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) has a 97% "worth it" rating on Real Self so patients almost universally feel that it is a good trade-off to get the desired results.

Answer: Thinking about having a tummy tuck but I don't like the scar that I have been seeing. Is the scar permanent or does it fad Thank you for your question. Unfortunately, all scars are permanent. They do fade with time, but seldom disappear completely. It is important to know how well your scar heals after a surgical procedure. Good genes in this area are certainly beneficial, however, there are some people who (regardless of scar management) scar badly. Consider the pros and the cons. Once you've considered both sides intelligently, move forward with your decision. I hope this helps. Best wishes and kind regards,

Answer: Tummy tuck scar It's permanent, but I put it very low where it hides under typical underwear. I feel like we have a very high satisfaction rate with tummy tucks. To get the Wow results, one has to remove skin, and that will leave a scar.Good Luck!

Answer: Tummy Tuck Scar Thanks for your question! Yes, the scar will fade, but any surgery and incision will always leave a faint mark. However, in my experience of doing over one thousand tummy tucks, people are quite happy tontrade the improved body contour for a faint scar. Plus, there are real advances in how we close incisions, and better post op scar management, that really improve today's scar appearance over 10-20 years ago. Best of luck to you!
