We already are going to have to extended my scar since I also have love handles now "dog ears" do I just need to get another tummy tuck? More Lipo?

Dear lovelybooty1,
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.

Thank you for the question. It is difficulty to determine what your best options are without a physical examination. My recommendation is to visit with several plastic surgeons before you make your final decision. I wish you the best of luck. Vasileios Vasilakis, MD.

It's difficult to tell from the limited photo but it does appear you have excess skin.  An examination is needed to determine if further skin removal in the form of a tummy tuck revision is indicated or if liposuction would be adequate to address your concerns.

Appears your TT was very conservative as based upon the ONLY 1 posted photo. A revision with correction of dog ears with lipo 360 indicated. Fees in the $6,000+++ ranges.
