Would a dog ear revision correct my mommy makeover results? (photo)

I’m definitely a dog lover but not in my operating room!!! Dog ears are a NO for me! “Standing cones” also known as dog ears, are differences in the amount of skin above and below the incsion. When performing a tummy tuck, there is almost universally more skin on the upper side of the incision vs the lower side. If the surgeon does not meticulously work the excess upper skin from the sides into the the more central part of the lower incision a dog ear will inevitably develop. Seeing your pictures, you have fairly large dog ears that appear to be a combination of the skin difference I mentioned earlier as well as some residual fat. I would recommend a combination of liposuction with scar revision to fix it and leave your silhouette smooth.

HelloThe issue in your abdominal area will be largely resolved with Vaser Liposuction. If there is still a level difference in the waist area after the procedure, it may be necessary to extend the tummy tuck incision.

It looks like your provider did a nice job on your abdomen. What you have is untreated hips and waist. It is very common to perform liposuction (either at the same time or delayed) of the sides to complete your mid-section as a cosmetic unit. Liposuction of your hips and waist will maximize the rejuvenation of your mid-section and help with the protuberance where your TT incisions end. Perhaps a little more skin with extension of the incision may be needed, but likely not. This is done with a light oral cocktail and local tumescent anesthesia with minimal risk and downtime. I hope this helps. Thank you.
