I've had 4 kids and 1 c section. I'm pretty thin 5'4... 112pounds. I work out and eat healthy but not obsessive over it. My stomach is as flat as it's going to get here. When I bend there is rolls of loose skin. Since my c section it's a permanent bump... Even when I "suck in" . I am covered in these stretch marks. I need help and advice on what to do so that I can have a flatter stomach and less wrinkled stretch marks. Thank you.
Answer: TT Be encouraged!!!Your protruding abdomen is due to the loose muscle and also for the saggy skin. So, these particular features makes your abdomen a perfect candidate for a Tummy Tuck with a tight muscle repair and your results can only be perfect!!! Because you already have a beautiful foundation. You will be loving your results: a flat abdomen and tapered waist. Dr. Cardenas

Answer: How on earth can my stomach be fixed up? A short scar tummy tuck will remove loose skin and tighten the muscles to produce a nice, flat, tight abdomen.Find a board certified plastic surgeon who performs hundreds of tummy tucks and body contouring procedures each year. Then look at the plastic surgeon's website before and after photo galleries to get a sense of who can deliver the results. Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA

Answer: Bulging Abdomen Hello. Thank you for your question and the pictures. What happens is the rectus abdomini muscles that make up the six pack, get separated during the distention created in the abdomen. If the distention is to much and depending on your skin quality, stretch marks are created (which are scars of the skin dermis). In your case, you appear to also have an umbilical hernia. From what can be seen in your pictures, since you are very slim, you benefit greatly from a tummy tuck with muscle repair. The muscle repair will provide some tightening of the muscular wall, repair the hernia, and some liposuction to the flanks will bring out a nice, smooth and curvy waistline. Can't really say about your back because of the pictures, but you are bound for excellent results

Answer: What can be done for your tummy? With your photos you graciously provided, a full tummy tuck is what would be suggested. If you were accepting of lesser results, you could even consider a mini-tuck. Be aware of what scars you will have to accept and decide if you're willing to accept them. And if your skin above your belly button isn't that loose, a belly button float could do the trick for you and also allow a simple repair of any umbilical hernias if present.
