I’m 10 mo post full TT. Had Necrosis at center which left me with wide scar. Also dog ear with excess fat bulge on my side. the incision line is too low on the sides and hangs out beneath all my bathingsuits & underwear. I feel like a PS should stand behind their work however how do I trust & feel comfortable having the same PS work on me again? Should I not risk it? Do I go to a PS who is a TT revision Specialist? Or is it best to let this PS fix it? Scared please help

Answer: TT revision Based on your photos there is no doubt that revision is needed. Your deformity can be significantly corrected with careful planing and good execution. Consultation with another board certified plastic surgeon with good reputation in body contouring surgery is recommended. Good luck.

Answer: Should I go back to the same Surgeon for a TT revision? Or seek a TT revision specialist? I understand your concerns. However, without the benefit of pre-op photos and a thorough understanding of the post-op course- it's difficult to give the best answer. No doubt - you have issues. It's highly likely that your original Surgeon may be able to revise the current scar to a more favorable condition. In short: an extended scar revision with possible elevation of the lateral scars- may be possible
