Does the extended tummy tuck (flanks and lower back) and chest lift produce as much tightness as a conventional tummy tuck?

Asked By:mirakuruyall in Johnsbach, Steiermark, Österreich

So i've had the tummy tuck done about 15 months ago and i have very high level of tightness in my abdomen since then that i can't get rid of. My question is, does the excess skin removal surgery of the other parts like flanks and lower back (and also chest lift) produce as much tightness as the conventional tummy tuck? Are there as many nerves in these areas (if thats the reason for this crazy tigthness that i am feeling in the abdomen). Please provide as much information as possible.
