I had a tummy tuck two weeks ago and am frustrated bc the scar on the sides is above my hip bones. What options do I have to lower the scar or fix this? Thanks so much.

Answer: VASER HI DEF 4D LIPO / 360 Degree Liposculpture / Tummy Tuck / Scar REVISION Lipo / Scar and Indentation After Lipo TT Sometimes the full scar needs to be revised and this just entails surgically removing and restitching the scar. Sometimes the scar plus the skin needs to be removed and that is a revision tummy tuck. I suggest posting photos and seeing an expert in revision procedures that combine liposuction/fat removal, skin tightening, body shaping/definition, fat grafting and cellulite improvement. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Tummy tuck results Dear normank79, 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.
