Will tummy tuck help flaten stomach? Will it get rid of the part hanging down on the bottom of stomach? Could some lipo be done on the top part of stomach?
Answer: Tummy Tuck and Liposuction Based on your photos, in my opinion, you are an excellent candidate for TT-- muscle tightening--- and flank liposuction. Tummy Tuck will remove the "hanging down" portion of your abdominal wall. The muscle tightening will assist and help to flatten the abdominal wall--- but may not completely flatten it in a vertical fashion. you may ned additional muscle exercises to further flatten the stomach. Flank Liposuction will assist in giving you an additional curve and improve your waist line appearance. In addition, you belly button will improve in appearance and the colon scar from the belly button down will be removed. You will though have the lower curved incision for the Tummy Tuck.

Answer: Abdominal Contouring Thank you for your question and photos. It is possible to improve your abdominal contour. There are some unique findings that will affect your outcome. You have extra fat around your organs that will not be helped by a tummy tuck or liposuction. Only diet and exercise will help with the intra-abdominal fat. The vertical scar above the belly button may also restrict how much skin tightening can be achieved and will have to be taken into consideration. Some liposuction would also be beneficial. Consult with a Plastic Surgeon for additional information.

Answer: Tummy tuck after previous surgery Based on your photographs, it appears that an abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) with some associated liposuction would significantly improve the appearance of your abdomen. The midline scar that you currently have would be shortened, but not completely removed. An examination would be helpful in determining how much of the abdominal "bulge" is related to skin/subcutaneous fat versus bulging of the muscles/intra-abdominal fat. I would suggest that you consider a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to more fully explore your options. Best of luck!

Answer: Tummy Tuck Will Help Thank you for your pictures. I believe that a full tummy tuck can help you improve your appearance. Liposuction may or may not be necessary. The midline scar will be shortened and below your belly button.Earl Stephenson, Jr, MD, DDS, FACS
