Over 1 year post-op & not happy with tummy tuck/loose skin & bunching - is this grounds for a revision? (Photos)

Question

Had a tummy tuck over a year ago still hate how my stomach looks the skin is lose and bunches up. I feel like this needs revision, can you let me know if I’m being picky of if this is grounds for getting revision?

Camille Cash, MD · Answer

An in person evaluation is best, but it appears from the photos that you would have some improvement with a revision.  Further skin can excised and the bunching can be smoothed out some.  See a board certified plastic surgeon near you to learn more.

Dear Gregarious8517,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

Some recurring tacitly if skin is common with a tummy tuck and I think more skin couid be removed from your lower abdomen

Zoran Potparic, MD · Answer

It is likely that revision may be needed to improve current result: aggressive liposuction of entire abdomen should be the first step, possibly combined with additional skin excision? Only on the basis of in person evaluation one could give you more elaborate plan of treatment. Good luck.

Connie Hiers, MD, FACS · Answer

Go back to your surgeon and discuss your concerns and options for a revision.  More skin could probably be removed in the inferior aspect.
