Tummy Tuck to Remove Stretch Marks Above Belly Button?

A standard Tummy tuck removes the skin from just above the belly button down to the pubic bone. If there is a lot of loose skin present, a limited amount of additional skin above the belly button can be removed.
The remaining skin is pulled taut and down. It is not possible to remove most stretch marks that are above the belly button, but they will look better after surgery because the skin will be pulled tighter.

Thank you for your question. It is hard to provided with a valid medical opinion without photos.  I would suggest to be treated by board certificated plastic surgeon with experience in this procedure, to get the best desired results.

The most difficult location to target stretch marks is above the belly button and on your sides, above the hips. Stretch marks on your middle to upper abdomen may not be removed, but they can be shifted lower. Stretching them out a bit can also reduce their appearance.

A tummy tuck removes a great deal of tissue from below the belly button to the bikini line where the scar resides.  Thus stretch marks above the belly button will often remain behind and have a stretched appearance as the remaining abdominal tissue is stretched to it's new appearance.  They may appear more shallow, but will also appear longer.  

An abdominoplasty will not get rid of all of your stretch marks. It will get rid of most of the stretch marks below the umbilicus, but not above. I always tell my patients it will probably get rid of about 80-85% by directly excising them. Many patients, especially if they’ve had large babies, they will have stretch marks extending all the way up to their rib cage areas. However, it is very effective in removing surgically the stretch marks below the umbilicus.

We can only get rid of the stretch marks that are on the actual piece of skin which is surgically removed.  The rest of them stay behind.

In the standard tummy tuck, this means the stretch marks that are below, or up to, the belly button are typically removed, and the ones above that get pulled to a lower position, but are still present.

Unfortunately, I'm not aware of any tummy tuck method that could treat your situation completely.
