I had a full TT 5 months ago I was 5'4 and weighed 123lbs. I workout and have a low-cal diet, I never had a fat stomach just separation of muscles and loose skin. I expected to look completely flat after my full TT with slight liposuction but its not, I still have a slight pouch. I told my PS and he said everyone will still have a slight pouch or they are sucking in. I am back working out but the change is not like I expected. No one can tell I had anything done and I am 120 lbs is this true?

Answer: Tummy Tuck Results not what I Expected?
Thank you for the question.
It is difficult to give you advice without examining you and/or viewing pictures. Direct examination will be necessary to determine if revision of your tummy talk will allow you to achieve the results that you are looking for. On the other hand, physical examination may demonstrate an excellent result and a potential problem with communication and/or realistic expectations prior to surgery.
I would suggest that you continue to follow-up with your plastic surgeon to communicate your questions and concerns. if you feel that there is a “failure to communicate”, seek an additional consultation in-person with a well expensed board-certified plastic surgeon.
Best wishes.

Answer: I Don't Have The Flat Stomach I Expected After Tummy Tuck Hello To make a specific treatment recommendation I would like to see some pictures first. I suggest you to let your plastic surgeon know that this is still concerning you so that he/she can explain again and guide you on what you can do. Meanwhile keep doing some exercises to help tone up the muscle. Good luck. Regards Dr. Israel Mañon Certified Plastic Surgeon
