12 months post-op, not happy with the results of my tummy tuck. What can be done to fix this? (Photo)

Thank you for your question about what can be done 12 months after a tummy tuck. If you've noticed changes in your abdomen, several possibilities might be causing this. If you've gained weight, this could impact your tummy tuck results. If it's loose skin, further surgery might be required. Or, it could just be swelling that still needs to subside. Ultimately, I recommend talking with your surgeon to get the best advice for your case. Again, thank you for your question, and I wish you the best of luck with your recovery.
Sincerely, Dr. Katzen

Your results may be improved from a revision. An examination is needed to determine if the bulge is a fatty pocket. If so, liposuction should improve it. If it is muscle wall laxity then plication of the muscle wall would be the correction. See a board certified plastic surgeon near you to learn more.

Dear trickynikky77,
I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what went wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment or ask for a second opinion. Only after a thorough examination, you can get proper recommendations and advice.
