Since most of your stretch marks are on the lower portion of your abdomen, the majority of the stretch marks will be cut out, but some will remain. If you go on a consult your surgeon will be able to mark out which stretch marks will be gone after your tummy tuck. You are an excellent candidate.
Without seeing you in person, it is impossible to say. This question would best be answered by your surgeon. My best,Dr. Sheila Nazarian@drsheilanazarian on Instagram
Hello,Contrary to many of my colleagues, you are not an ideal or even a good candidate for an abdominoplasty if your main goal is stretchmark removal. You need as much skin to be removed as possible to remove your stretchmarks. However, you have very little skin excess in the upper abdomen to allow much skin removal. Your highest stretchmarks will move to the level of your belly button. If that is ok with you, then you should move forward.Another benefit of a tummy tuck will be muscle wall plication, which will flatten your abdomen from your belly button downward. Best of luck!
It appears you are a good candidate for a tummy tuck. A lot of your stretch marks will be removed but not those above the belly button but those will moved much lower. Also, it looks like your underlying abdominal muscle need tightening and this will go a long way to making your new tummy very flat! I'm excited for you. Tummy tucks are big operations but they can produce dramatic results and fix post- pregnancy issues that you really have no control over. I hope this information helps!

If you're undergoing a full Tummy Tuck then most of your stretch marks will be removed. We typically don't see new stretch marks but the ones above your belly button will be repositioned down by your Pubic region.
