I don’t have separation on my stomach muscles. Would a mini tummy tuck be ideal for me? Or a tummy tuck( no muscle tightening )help get rid of my loose skin. Would the incision from hip to hip be enough to pull skin from my back forward? Is that possible? I’m 29 and hate my results. I’ve had lipo before with bbl. What procedure would help fix it. A tummy tuck? J plasma ? I hate my body
Answer: Tummy tuck Dear lasdlove, it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

Answer: Tuck Neither the mini tuck nor the full will make much change to your back. The Renuvion or other similar treatments can help tighten the back skin and flatten down the rolls.

Answer: Considering options An in person evaluation is best to determine which procedures are best for you. A mini tummy tuck will address loose skin and excess fat below the belly button. It does not address any laxity above it. Neither a mini nor a standard tummy tuck will improve the concerns you have for your back. For that area you can consider potentially liposuction or a bra line lift. See a board certified plastic surgeon near you to learn more.

Answer: Will a mini tuck or tummy tuck help back texture & loose skin? J-Plasma? (Photos) Thank you for sharing your question and photographs. Nothing replaces an in-person examination but it appears that a back lift would be required to address your skin laxity as a tummy tuck only address the front abdomen. Seek out in-person consultations for the best advice.

Answer: Procedures You are one of the patients I would ask to be seen in person to give you an accurate opinion. A mini-abdominoplasty (mini-TT) would not benefit you well. It appears from the photos you have stretch marks and mild laxity of both the upper and lower abdomen. A mini-TT would not address issues above the umbilicus. A full abdominoplasty requires the upper abdominal skin to be loose enough to advance from the upper belly button down to the pubis. If not, you will have a small residual vertical scar in the lower abdomen from the old belly button hole (that gets pulled down with a full abdominoplasty). Liposuction of your back will get rid of most of your fat, give you a nicer waist line and cause some contraction of the skin.
