What can be done to help me achieve a flat, tight, sculpted stomach? (photos)

I would suggest doing a mini tuck to remove the excess tissue from the lower abdomen and retighten your muscle.

Hello; your ribs are probably high and protruding outwards. For having a Tummy Tuck; I think, enough skin has been removed and the abdominal muscles have been repaired. However, while looking for the photos; you also gain for belly fat. You also seem to have loose skin. In this case, initially, you need to check the condition of your abdominal muscles. If there is too much looseness in the muscles; it is essential to do "muscle pligation". If there is excess fat; it is needful for doing vaserlipo. For loose skin; I recommend for Renuvion J Plasma technique.

Thank you for your question regarding how to achieve a flat, tight, sculpted stomach, especially considering your previous surgeries and the persistence of a hump on your abdomen.

Given your history of having a tummy tuck in 2019, followed by a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) with liposuction and abdominal etching, and still experiencing dissatisfaction with the abdominal contour, it sounds like a more focused approach may be necessary. Since you mention a "hump" that persists, this could be due to several factors, such as residual fat, uneven liposuction, or underlying muscle weakness or separation that wasn't adequately addressed in your previous procedures.

A revised tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, with muscle plication (tightening of the abdominal muscles) would be an appropriate choice to consider. Muscle plication is specifically aimed at tightening and reinforcing the abdominal wall, which can significantly enhance the contour of your waist and create a flatter, more sculpted stomach. This procedure can also help get rid of any excess skin that might be contributing to a less-than-ideal contour and address any irregularities from previous surgeries.

It's crucial to consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon who specializes in revisional body contouring surgery. They can assess the structure of your abdominal muscles, the distribution of remaining fat, and the quality of your skin to determine the precise interventions needed to achieve the best possible results.

During your consultation, be sure to discuss your previous surgeries in detail, including any issues you've experienced since those procedures. This information will help your surgeon tailor the approach to specifically target the areas that need correction, ensuring you achieve a flat and sculpted appearance that meets your expectations.

Sincerely,
Dr. Katzen
