Will a CT show complications or muscle failure 15 months after tummy tuck? (Photo)

Hello; Enough to allow for a Full Abdominal Tuck in your upper abdomen; you don't have loose skin. Therefore, it is not possible for you; to have a Full Tummy Tuck. Whereas; even if, you can have a full Tummy Tuck; sub mamary crease would not change.In your current situation; at best, a Mini Tummy Tuck procedure seems for doable. Meanwhile, for your scars; which are located under the breast; revision surgery may be performed.

This is a good question And fortunately a rare problem. I have encountered this with just a small percentage of my tummy tuck patients.

One recently was a similar figure and size. Her initial postop results were excellent, and then gradually she progressed to an expanded abdomen. The muscle felt intact and upon operation was in fact, still intact. Her tissues had simply stretched. My initial repair remained solid. I did a secondary plication and even used mesh to support the repair again. Results were excellent but over many months she gradually expanded again.

Internal fat can play a role with weight gain, the gradually expand the Abdomen, but in your case that does not seem to be the Problem. Poor nutrition and poor muscle tone and occasional genetic issues can cause this as well.

While it is unfortunate, sometimes biological systems do not behave as expected.

Good luck
