I had a tummy tuck in 2003 ten years ago. Have gained weight since then and my abdomen is quite distended looking, it looks good when I suck it in but thats not possible 24/7. Is it possible to have a second tummy tuck done for muscle repair without lipo?
Answer: Considerations for a possible second TT? Far more important than deciding if TT is for you is the skill and experience of your plastic surgeon. Choose your surgeon rather than the technique and let him explain why one technique may be better than another and if you need a tummy tuck. Many board certified plastic surgeons provide a free first time consult and you should take advantage of that! See the below link on some suggestions on finding the most qualified Plastic Surgeon for you!

Answer: Repeat tummy tuck
Yes, it is possible to have a second tummy tuck. This is usually precipitated by weight swings. It can be performed with out without liposuction. You would need an exam to determine whether the issues are purely muscle related or are more involved. See a board certified plastic surgeon for a consultation and to discuss your options.

Answer: Second Tummy Tuck
Thank you for your question. Some people do get some recurrent abdominal bulging from either weight changes or pregnancies after a tummy tuck. This can be improved with a second tummy tuck, in which the muscles can be further tightened. The difficulty in a secondary tummy tuck is the amount of skin excess. Typically, there is not as much redundant skin in a secondary tummy tuck, which can result in a short "T" of the scar.
I would suggest consulting with a plastic surgeon for more definitive advice. But in short, a second tummy tuck is a possibility.
Best of luck with your belly.
