I'm 7 weeks post op full tummy tuck, muscle repair and lipo. I can push my stomach out and make it look as if I didn't have a tummy tuck. Is that normal or is my tummy tuck a fail?

Answer: Laxity after an abdominoplasty? This is really a question that requires an examination. There will always be some degree of laxity if you push your abdomen out but it should be better than it was prior to surgery.

Answer: Contour after TT Thanks for your question. Yes, you can still "push out" your abdominal wall after TT. Tightening the abdominal wall during TT surgery simply brings the muscles back into their normal anatomic position prior to childbirth, etc. We generally are not "over-correcting" it. Still, at rest, you probably have a nice improvement in your contour. Best wishes.
