I had a "mommy make over" in 2016. Since then my abdominal muscles have become very lax. I'm considering having a second tummy tuck for the muscle repair and also getting a BBL. I know most likely I will need an inverted T incision since I don't have much loose skin. Are second tummy tucks commonly performed and would liposuction typically be performed in the abdominal area for the BBL? I'm worried about the risks of having a second surgery performed in the same area.

Answer: Tummy tuck revision Dear isilove, it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

Answer: Revisional abdominoplasty Secondary or revisional abdominoplasties are usually not required unless a patient becomes pregnant after the procedure and the skin and abdominal wall gets stretched out again. Your photo is absolutely inadequate for providing more detailed information about your particular situation. I would discuss the risks, benefits, alternative and complications in detail with your surgeon after a complete physical examination in person.
