Or would a different procedure be required with the TT?
Answer: Tummy Tuck & Liposuction Thank you for your questions and photos. The majority of your lesions would be removed with the surplus skin during a tummy tuck. A tummy tuck will address excess skin & repair of the abdominal muscle. The abdominal wall can be weakened after pregnancy and (or) significant weight gain & loss. By repairing the muscle, not only does the appearance of your abdominal area improve, but your core strength as well. The repair of the muscle will cinch your waist like an inner corset, which will accentuate your curves. Liposuction will remove excess fat from unwanted areas with some skin retraction. Your expectations and health will dictate the best procedure(s) for you. I suggest a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to go over the options that best address your goals. Best of luck!

Answer: Can I get rid of these lesions on my stomach with a tummy tuck? These appear to be previous scars. The upper ones will be too high to be removed with a tummy tuck. A tummy tuck would however make them lower on your abdomen.

Answer: Tummy tuck It appears the lesions that you mention may be keloids or hypertrophic scars. During a tummy tuck those that are at the level of the belly button and below will be removed. Those above it will be moved to a lower position. I encourage you to visit with a board certified plastic surgeon near you to further discuss your concerns.
