I’m 53. Lost over 100 lbs six years ago. Had TT with muscle repair, FDL, and LBL. My skin was not tight post surgery. I am kind of lumpy and have a lot of skin that I can pinch. Will a revision fix this?

Answer: Bellesoma Method and scar revisions Unfortunately, in your photographs you have not shown your breasts. There is a breast lift technique called The Bellesoma Method that will reshape your breast tissue creating upper pole fullness without implants, elevate them higher on the chest wall and more medial to increase your cleavage. Vertical scars are avoided, nipple sensation (in 95%) and the ability to breast feed are maintained. This technique also pulls up the upper abdominal skin and will help with the excess abdominal skin. You would also benefit from scar revisions.

Answer: Tummy tuck, FDL, LBL and loose skin remaining - will a revision fix this? Yes. There is skin redundancy and laxity of the lower abdomen, The abdominal wall can be tightened below the umbilicus, the lower excess abdominal skin removed appropriately, and a reverse tummy tuck to tighten the upper abdomen could be done at the same time, if necessary, or as a later secondary procedure. Since you already have a midline scar, the umbilicus could be freed and the flap dissected as in a primary tummy tuck, pulled down, and any residual umbilical donor-site hole sutured in the midline in continuity with the fleur-de-lis scar. The decision would be made in an in-person consultation to see what might work best.
