Answer: The quality of the remaining skin will effect the outcome of an abdominoplasty. Photograph demonstrates the remaining skin on the abdomen contain stretch marks. These areas are incapable of contracting when the abdomen is flexed. There's not much that can be done about this.

Answer: Loose skin after tummy tucks I am curious if you had significant weight loss prior to surgery as you can still have loose skin due to loss of elasticity with pre -stretched skin that often can't be totally corrected with one procedure due to the initial limits of tension on the primary closure. There might be a vertical component that would require a scar down the middle of the abdomen to take out extra skin. Also you can not judge excess skin when you are seated or bending over as many women and men have excess skin in these positions that are in excellent shape and have not had tummy tucks. the standing position shows what most would consider a nice TT outcome.
