I've had children and had a nice flat tummy before, and wanted to know if a tummy tuck will help with the orange peel looking skin and stretch marks- which extend up about 2 inches above my belly button. Also the scar from my belly button piercing. Any advice would be great.

Answer: With a tummy tuck most of the scar should be gone but not all
In most tummy tucks all the skin below the umbilicus will be removed sometimes a portion of the skin above will be removed. The umbilical scar should be removed as well. Regardless you should have a significant cosmetic improvements.

Answer: Stretch marks from pregnancy You appear to be an excellent candidate for an abdominoplasty and you should get a nice result. Typically the ellipse of skin that is removed during the procedure will remove the central stretch marks below your umbilicus.A full tummy tuck will remove the skin below your belly button.Please consult a board certified plastic surgeon for an examination and a thorough discussion of your goals and to learn what is possible.
