I had a tummy tuck performed 3 months ago and I'm not pleased with the result. I feel like there was no liposuction performed and I have what is known as dog ears. I don't think he extended the excision enough. Does it look like I will need a revision or can liposuction provide the results I'm looking for?

Answer: Tummy tuck Nice result overall and will improve further with time. Dogs ears are simple to deal with under local anesthesia by your original surgeon

Answer: Early postoperative result after TT It is very difficult to discuss on pateit result without preoperative photos to compare. It looks that you had a lot of loose skin and moderate skin tone? It would be in you best interest to wait at least 1 year after surgery before considering any revision. Revision may include more aggressive liposuction (which is limited when TT is performed to 1 litter in Florida), or combination of liposuction and vertical skin excision (between BB and pubis). For the time being garmet, massage and scar management with occlusive tapes. Good luck.

Answer: Possible Revision You are not far enough out to assess your results. Swelling from a tummy tuck takes a year. At that point you and your surgeon can assess if you need a revision surgery and what that surgery might look like.
