I am considering tummy tuck in future after having baby. Is tummy tuck can fix this fibrosis unevenness from previous lipo? Also can I have ab etching from tummy tuck too?
Answer: Can a Tummy Tuck solve uneven Liposuction in abdomen area? hello,If you have loose abdominal skin and a separated diastasis recti muscle (abdominal muscle), the tummy tuck would excess a section of the scarred (fibrotic) tissue which occured as a result of the liposuction. It would also flatten out some of the irregular areas. In some cases, I would also do fat grafting to fill in highly irregular areas that would likely not resolve with the Tummy Tuck procedure. Alternatively, you could just do a minimum of fat grafting to help resolve 'some' of the irregularity. So, you are absolutely on the right track of thinking about this! Definitely best to consult with a surgeon who is Board Certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. Take care and good luck!Ricardo L Rodriguez MDBaltimore, Maryland

Answer: Tummy tuck after liposuction Hello and thank you for your question. The best advice you can receive is from an in-person consultation. I have performed tummy tucks in patients for this exact reason and it can help significantly. It is important to determine if you have enough laxity in your abdomen for a tummy tuck. The only way to determine this is with an in-person examination. Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and evaluate their results. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person.

Answer: Tummytuck After Liposuction Complications Creamy77 Sorry you are having these issues and physical examination would be needed to provide a more comprehensive answer and recommendation. However, it appears that most of the contour irregularities can be greatly improved and even eliminated with a tummy tuck, assuming there is enough redundant skin after your pregnancy. I am not a big fan of abdominal etching specifically because of complications similar to yours, significant skin irregularities and dimpling from thickened scar tissue just beneath the skin. Also, it appears that you have little excess fat of the abdominal region and etching would not be advised.When you are ready, consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon in our area to discuss the best options for you. Good luck.
