had a c section years ago, I was left with this puffy scar when I stand and when I sit the skin bunches up, would I need a mini tummy tuck to correct this? Also I was thinking of getting breast implants to make my breasts larger but after I had my son I tried breast feeding a few times and it left a stretch mark on my right breast and left it looking lower then the other side.. can I still get implants for them to look right? Would this be a mommy makeover? Thank you!
Answer: A revision can be done followed by scar laser treatment Abdominoplasty scars can be quite complex, ranging from the simple hypertrophic scar to a multiplane inflamed keloid. Pigmentation, discoloration, chronic inflammation, scar visibility can all occur in the short term. We begin each treatment with combination therapy using Yellow broadband BBL, Vbeam, fractional erbium, intralesional IIT, and scar modulation. Start with a combination of Plato's Scar Serum massaged twice daily after one week of epithelialization followed by Luminase/Exfolase. Scar consultation and revision may be recommended.

Answer: C-section scar The "bunching" of your c-section scar is very common due to the closure technique of closing the skin but not closing scarpas fascia. You can fix this with a simple scar revision or if you wanted to address other concerns you could proceed with a tummy tuck. You could also have a breast augmentation at the same time as the abdomen procedure. I would recommend an in person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon.

Answer: Mini lift and mini tummy tuck Your breasts are asymmetrical in volume, shape and position. I would begin with your breasts using a mini lift. Using a circumareola incision, your breast tissue is reshaped, elevated higher on the chest wall and more medial to increase your cleavage. At the same time, fat transfers or small implants can be placed totally submuscular. In terms of your abdomen, the scar can be revised. However, the scar is quite high and you may be better off with a mini tummy tuck to position the scar lower on the abdominal wall.
