Asked By:GroseXo in Calabasas, CA

Hello I was in a major car accident. I had 4 tears in my intestines and I was opened up and left with a big indenting scar down my whole abdomen. I was wondering if a tummy tuck could possibly rid me of the scar? There is so creams or laser treatments that can get rid of this scar it is like carved into my stomach. Thanks for any help!
