Is There a Procedure to Pull Skin on Upper Abs?

July 1, 2009
Asked By:amanda t. in 10304

I had a Mini tummy tuck 5 years ago with some Liposuction on my upper abs. My abdominal muscles are in very good shape, however, I now have some loose skin and dimpling on my upper abs.I have heard about reverse tummy tucks. Is there a procedure to just pull the skin on my upper abs (no fat removal, no muscle repair)? Help!
