My mini tuck included removal of extra skin (pouch) and lipo of ab and sides w/o muscle repair. He said I didn't need the muscle repair. I no longer have a pouch but I'm not flat. He said I need more lipo to enhance my appearance. He said i need more lipo and he would do the lipo again for $1500 abs/flanks. Will lipo fix my current situation? Will scar tissue from previous surgeries hinder me ever getting a flat ab?

Answer: Mini abdominoplasty Hello,Thank you for the question and photos. Based on abdominal shape/protrusion, you may be dealing with visceral fat around internal organs which cannot be liposuctioned out- this needs to be reduced with healthy weight loss for a flatter abdomen. Additionally, after removing additional fat from the abdomen either through weight loss or liposuction, you may need to discuss a Tummy Tuck revision to address excess skin. In either case I'd recommend that you allow yourself a few more months at least to heal and work on maintaining a healthy ,stable weight before considering additional surgeries. All the best

Answer: Tummy tuck Im sorry that you are disappointed with your initial operation however the initial plan may have been the incorrect plan and therefore you are not satisfied. From the looks of things you may have benefited from a tummy tuck instead of a mini. Discuss this with your PS. Good Luck
