Huge lump after Mini Tummy Tuck - would a revision work? (photos)

Question

I had an mini tummy tuck with my muscles fixed by doing a float. The procedure has gone wrong and i am left with a huge lump at the bottom of stomach. Will a revision work?

Dear Diligent150917
Thanks for your question and sharing your photos. Looking at your photographs it is obvious that you have a lot of excess skin above your belly button makes your abdomen look "aged". You also have some indentation of scar and extra fat immediately above your scar. You would be a good candidate for a revision abdominoplasty with some liposuction to get your best result.I hope you find this information helpful.

An in person evaluation is always best but it from your photos it appears you would benefit from a standard tummy tuck.  This would address excess skin an muscle repair.  See a board certified plastic surgeon near you for a consultation to learn more.

Dear Diligent150917,
I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what went wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment or ask for a second opinion. Only after a thorough examination, you can get proper recommendations and advice.
