I'm a 33 yr old male. I had my first TT procedure in June of 2019. Have been unhappy with it ever since. Abdomen is uneven: more skin/fat on left side than right. Too much skin and fat was left in abdomen. Scar is awful (hate it). Have fat/skin laxity on entire lower torso (sides/back) that also bothers me. My desire is to have a tight torso, to bring out the muscular V-Shape (trim torso and broad shoulders). I have a muscular build already. Want taut/tight skin in torso. I'm healthy.

Dear Passionate316734,
congrats on the weight loss! Generally speaking, you want to reach your goal weight before you consider a tummy tuck, otherwise your results will be suboptimal if you continue to lose weight after the surgery.
