Had a TT 15 yrs ago, 2" higher on one side, dog ears which the surgeon had no idea" what they were" & told me to lose weight. (Id lost 10 lbs since surgery 6 wks earlier.) Had revision; it was less tilted but still off, dog ears less pronounced. But even while I was in the original compression garment, I could see that my abdomen was now shaped differently, like a pair of parentheses instead of my natural hourglass. This remains to this day. Can a revision help?
