Answer: Tummy Tuck - Results Ok this is hard to tell without seeing the before pictures. If your surgeon is an experienced and board certified, then muscle plication is one of the things we pride ourselves on. Have a talk with your surgeon and let him or her know that you don't feel tight any longer and see if there are options. MOST patients lose weight after tummy tuck and things can feel looser. Best Wishes!!

Answer: Tummy tuck results It's difficult to comment on the quality of your result without seeing preoperative photos as well. From the submitted photos it appears you have an acceptable result. Sometimes the contour of the abdomen is influenced by visceral/internal fat. This cannot be corrected with a tummy tuck. I encourage you to speak to your surgeon about your concerns.
