It was suggested that I have a ctt, but that the final decision is up to me. I have only seen patients with major weight loss have this kind of surgery. It was explained that the ctt will smooth out my back more and lift my butt. I want my waist Lipo d but not concerned abt the fat on my back because I'm 15-20 pds over my normal weight in preparation for fat transfer to my butt. Please tell me your opinion and the pros and cons in each as you see it applies to me. Thanks
Answer: PROS AND CONS OF EXTENDED OR CICULAR TUMMY TUCK The main issues against the 360 degree tuck are not as much the scar along the buttocks which is not as good as the scar along the tummy line, but it is the length of surgery, cost, and recovery which is a bit longer than a standard tuck. We can classify tummy tucks into standard or low cut, extended (270 degrees), or complete (360 degrees). You are young and are best suited for an extended tuck which will straightens the arch of the lower back, and tightens the abdomen so your tummy is not thrown forward as in the side view. The love handles that extend all the way to the back, can be treated with liposuction during the tucking procedure. For a major lower body lifting then a 360 tuck is considered. The weight loss patient as you said needs a further uplifting of the lower body in a 360 manner and that is a considerable operation. A 360 tummy tuck, however, by itself is just time intensive and the backside scar is a bit more sore than the tummy tuck front scar in some patients.
