Almost all of the tattoo can be removed if that is a priority. If the priority is to get the best contours that may be a different request, depending upon physical exam findings.
Yes it can. The incision me need to be a little lower but it should work out well. Good luck
In a tummy tuck the skin of the lower abdomen is removed. Usually the skin excision involves an ellipse of skin that goes horizontally from hip bone to hip bone and vertically from the belly button to the pubic bone. If the tattoo is within that area it will be removed with a tummy tuck. Unfortunately, most tattoos that I have seen in the lower abdominal/groin area are positioned so that only the upper half of the tattoo can be easily removed with a tummy tuck. Sometimes it is best to leave the lower portion of the tattoo and look laser removal afterwards. If the tattoo is too low, excision of it with a tummy tuck would lead to an abnormal scar. I hope this helps.
Without pictures, it is difficult to answer this question well. If the tattoo is located between the belly button and the pubic area, it should be able to be removed in a full tummy tuck. An in person consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon will give you the best answer.
Your tattoo is very low and appears to wrap around your hip. It is likely that some of it will be removed with a tummy tuck but not all. You may want to look into laser tattoo removal once you are healed.
Your tattoo is fairly low on the abdomen so the portion of your tattoo that is closest to the center of your stomach will likely be removed during a tummy tuck. It is possible that the part of the tattoo closest to your hip may not be removed during this procedure. I would focus on the best tummy tuck for your body, then look into laser tattoo removal options in case some of your tattoo is not removed during your tummy tuck procedure. Speak to your surgeon about your best options during an in-person consultation.
Your tatoo appears to be quite low almost in the pelvic area not as much on the abdominal wall. Probably a good portion of it can be removed if not all of it
Based on the very low position of your tattoo, it would be capable of being removed with a mini-tummy tuck. (skin cutout below the belly button) It is too low, however to be completely removed by a full tummy tuck as the amount of skin removal to do it is too great to get the wound closed after removal. Your decision is one of getting the best tummy tuck result and leaving much of the tattoo or getting rid of the tattoo but with less than the maximum result from a more limited tummy tuck procedure.
Yes very possible to obtain a complete excision of the tattoo posted in your abdominal photo with a full TT.
Your tattoo is more lateral than the usual tummy tuck incision and scar; however, it could be removed with an extended scar. You should discuss this with your plastic surgeon.
