I am 5‘7“ tall and 128 pounds. I had a full tummy tuck with muscle repair on 03/02/21. I don’t mind my bb when I am standing straight even though I can see the scar, but I really hate it when I lie down on my back. It completely pops out. Would a revision fix this?

Dear CJplastics,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. Based on your photos, it looks like you would benefit from belly button surgery. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get...
Yes, you are a candidate for a belly button revision. An elliptical incision is made, the skin is pulled down and the scar is hidden at the base attached to the underlying umbilicus,

Unfortunately, your photos are inadequate. However, there is a breast lift procedure that also pulls the upper abdominal skin up and this may solve your problem. I would need photographs of your breasts to see if you would be a candidate for this procedure.
