I know there are many Doctors that "claim" they can do this. Then you have doctors that say it is not possible. CAN IT BE DONE? If not what are some other options? A hip bone to hip bone scar is not an option. I scar very bad and I know if will not heal well.
Answer: Tummy tuck without a scar is not a tummy tuck A tummy tuck removes loose skin, repairs a muscle separation when necessary, and removes any localized excess fat. Without leaving a scar, the only option is liposuction. There are exaggerated claims about skin tightening with laser-assisted lipo and other technologies but none of them come close to what a surgical tummy tuck does.

Answer: Tummy Tuck with NO SCAR! Is it possible? Tummy tuck operations involve removal of “excess” skin that is present after pregnancies and/or weight gain/loss. Removal of the skin can will leave a scar. I hope this, and the attached link, (demonstrating tummy tuck scars) helps.

Answer: Tummy Tuck With No Scar - Too Good To Be True Sounds too good to be true - that is correct, there is no such thing as a scarless tummy tummy tuck as one of the major parts of the procedure is to remove loose skin.

Answer: Tummy Tuck Scar A tummy tuck procedure is performed when a patient has excess skin that needs to be removed. Patients often also need abdominal muscle tightening and liposuction. When an incision is made to remove excess skin, a scar is inevitable. Everything possible is done to minimize the appearance of this scar; it is always possible to revise a scar later on if necessary. I would recommend having a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon so they can address your concerns. Patients that benefit from a tummy tuck are generally happy to have flat, tight abdomens in exchange for a scar.

Answer: TT Thank you for the question.I don't think that there will be any cut made with out leaving a scar. They're a lot of scar minimizing treatments out there that can help you dimish the scar but not remove completely.
