I had an abdominoplasty with muscle repair and upper abdo lipo done in Jan 23. Ever since surgery I've never been flat or tight. It's been 6 months now and I'm still unhappy with how much it buldges above and below my bellt button. It hangs over my leggings at the gym. Do I need a revision and how much do I need done? Like the whole skin part again?
Answer: Abdominoplasty revision It is very likely that you will need revision, both by means of skin excision And liposuction, based on these photos. However, only on the basis of person evaluation (seek a second opinion consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon) one could give you more accurate assessment. Hope this helps.

CONTACT NOW Answer: Abdomen I would suggest starting with liposuction to remove excess fat. Once healed about 6 months later, then the tuck can be revised to remove excess skin if needed.

Answer: Revision Based on your photos it does appear a revision would be helpful in improving your results. Excess fat and skin would be removed. You could add liposuction of the hips/flanks for further contouring. See a board certified plastic surgeon near you to learn more.

Answer: Tummy tuck results The most common reasons patient bulge after a full tummy tuck is the presence of excess visceral fat. This should be assessed during an in person consultation and patient should be told that visceral fat is an issue before they have surgery. Individuals who have excess visceral fat will not get a flat abdomen even with successful muscle tightening. Individuals who are obese and have excess visceral fat should consider losing weight before the operation in order to optimize their candidacy for the procedure. You can still improve on your outcome with the weight loss, which should reduce the amount of intra-abdominal or visceral fat.
