Hi, I’m posting this again with more pictures. I have had a BBL in 2017 & had my first child 6 months ago in January 2022. My body is so awkward now and I don’t know what to do.. I don’t want a tummy tuck because my skin is so bad when it comes to big scars + I don’t like the way they do the belly button after a tummy tuck. Help! My stomach is uneaevn and my muscles have separated.
Answer: Yes you need a tummy tuck Yes, you need a tummy tuck, you have lose skin in the front, and removing the extra skin also you remove a lot of the stretch marks, the belly button could be really beautiful, and natural, not all the surgeons do it the same technique, so your research

Answer: Please wait at least 6 months Congratulations on your first child! If you’re not breastfeeding and haven’t done so for at least 6 months, then you may consider proceeding with cosmetic surgery. Based on your photos, you appear to have loose skin. You also mentioned that you have abdominal muscle separation. For these reasons, a tummy tuck may be your only suitable option. Liposuction alone will not be sufficient.

Answer: Tummy Tuck & Liposuction Thank you for your questions and photos. From your photos, a tummy tuck will give you the best results. You are not alone with the fear of the unattractive belly button and scars. Make sure you find a doctor that can show you numerous photos of their work with patients of similar body & skin type. A tummy tuck will address excess skin & repair of the abdominal muscle. The abdominal wall can be weakened after pregnancy and (or) significant weight gain & loss. By repairing the muscle, not only does the appearance of your abdominal area improve, but your core strength as well. The repair of the muscle will cinch your waist like an inner corset, which will accentuate your curves. Liposuction will remove excess fat from unwanted areas with some skin retraction. Your expectations and health will dictate the best procedure(s) for you. I suggest a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to go over the options that best address your goals. Best of luck!

Answer: Tummy tuck From your photos it appears you would have better results with a standard tummy tuck. This would address the excess fat and skin and correct the abdominal wall laxity. This is what is contributing to the round look of your abdomen. Visit with a board certified plastic surgeon near you to learn more. Many have before/after photos available so you can review the look of the belly button after surgery.
