Following my procedure I have noted the right side is fuller, sticks out more and the scar is higher that side. How could this be corrected?
Answer: Correction A small correction to your right side can be performed to improve symmetry. The excess skin can be removed along with a little liposuction if needed. See a board certified plastic surgeon near you to learn more.

Answer: Can the right side be corrected with a tummy tuck revision? Hello @daz100, thank you for your question. It is important to remember that we aren't completely equal on both sides; there are always some differences that may or may not be noticeable. It is wise to keep this in mind when setting expectations and planning your surgery.A revision or non-surgical treatment may improve the volume in the area. For more information and recommendations, it is prudent to consult with one or several board certified plastic surgeons. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS.

Answer: Tummy tuck results Dear daz100, 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.
