Posted under Tummy Tuck q&a

Am I the only one in world with past surgery scars and unable to have anything done?

suprwmn72
Had a mini tummy tuck over 10 years ago. Wanted full TT. Had an ex lap then open abdominal surgery to repair gallbladder duct over 30 years ago, left with large scar across upper abdomen. Mini tuck done no issues with healing. Now I’m told I am unable to have tummy tuck because of large abdominal scar and blood flow healing issues. Also told couldn’t have liposuction either. Am I the only one in world with past surgery scars and unable to have anything done?
