Why are some tummy tuck scars crooked? (photos)

Asked By:Fit_mami_of3 in North Jersey

I've been to 4 different consultations to 4 different doctors and some of their after pictures were quite a sight. I really want to get a tummy tuck, but the scar frightens me. Then I read about "dog ears" and necrosis and it's scary. My body is my temple and I work very hard for it. Is it possible to have a smooth scar, and not all jagged?
