Will I need a revision? I feel like I still have a lot of skin & belly button sinks when I sit (Photos)

Thank you for your question.
Based on your photos, you may require a revision to remove any excess abdominal skin left. I recommend speaking to a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss your concerns.

Dear Cabzairod94,
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.

From your photo it looks like your surgeon removed all of the skin that was possible to remove at the time of your surgery.
It is natural to feel that there is a lot of skin on the abdomen when one sits down, even after a tummy tuck. Everything in the trunk area is compressed when we sit, including the spine, internal organs and skin. If you have no excess skin when you sit, you wouldn't have enough skin to stand straight. I recommend you assess your skin when you are standing.
As well, I encourage you to express concerns to your surgeon if you want to. Surgeons generally welcome questions like this from patients.

All the best to you as you continue to recover,
Dr. Nancy de Kleer

Hello @Cabzairod94, thank you for your question and showing your pictures. It is critical to consult the doctor that performed the surgical procedure. This is because he knows what type of technique he or she used and how he or she performed the procedure. 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.

Thank you for your question. It is still early in the healing process, especially if you had liposuction performed. While you may have some excess skin or fat, Please be reassured that even when the skinniest person bends over their belly button hinges inside. If you don’t improve and aren’t happy with your results 6 to 12 months after surgery, you may benefit from liposuction, or additional liposuction of your abdomen to thin out the area. Good luck.

You are still early in the healing process and can expect more changes ahead. Swelling is common after a tummy tuck and it will take several months for it to completely resolve and tissues to settle. I encourage you to closely follow your surgeon's advice and to communicate your concerns. It is important that you feel comfortable and confident in your recovery.

Everybody is going to have skin laxity with skin folds when they flex their torso. if you have tight skin in a sitting position you wouldn’t be able to stand up. Before and after pictures are never taken with the Abdomen in a flex position and that is not how the outcome of the procedure should be judged.
If you expected to have a tight flat abdomen in a sitting position than you were expecting some thing that can’t be delivered.
If you want us to assess the outcome of your procedure then I suggest posting a before and after pictures.
It’s important to understand what can and cannot be accomplished with this procedure.
And a standing position do you look better than you did before? is it a substantial improvement?
Have you ever not had a skinfolds on your lower abdomen in a sitting position even as a child?
Best,
Mats Hagstrom MD
