Tummy Tuck revision - do I need one?

E

About a year ago I saved up enough to get a tummy tuck. (8 years saving) I really wanted it done . I think I’m needing a revision on the entire thing. He’s already went in and cut off more but the skin below is so thin I believe I need to have more taken from above my belly button. I have a weird dip in my muscle which is now causing it to show on my loose skin that’s left .
