Question

I am 36 and I weigh 11st 10 I’m 5’7 I had a tummy tuck muscle repair and lipo one years ago Im not happy with My results as I have a large upper bulge and also a lump of fat above my belly botton I also have a roll of fat that covers my belly botton when bending over

Camille Cash, MD · Answer

A full tummy tuck is advised based on your photos.  The protrusion in the upper portion of your abdomen is either related to visceral/internal fat or muscle wall repair failure.  If you had a mini tummy tuck that area isn't repaired nor is the excess skin above the belly button.  I've included a video on the procedure that I hope you find helpful.

Hello @RSProfile3695427, thank you for your question and showing you pictures. There are several factors to consider, among which is the surgical technique and a few additional tests to establish what really happened, and from there implement a surgical plan based on your needs and expectations. The best course of action is to consult one or several board certified plastic surgeon for more information and options tailored specifically to your needs. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD FACS

Based on these very limited photos, it looks that most of your bulge is fat tissue. Aggressive liposuction of the abdomen would make significant difference. In person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon, is recommmended.

Dear son1233,
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.

Even with in clothing posted photos hiding the complete TT results, you need full revision with lipo. Best to virtual consult. Fee from $8,000++.
