Vertical crease / fold after Tummy Tuck. Would a reverse tummy tuck correct this? (Photo)

August 3, 2016
Asked By:Louise1979 in United Kingdom, GB

I had a full tummy tuck with muscle repair 20th November 2015 and breast reduction / lift done at the same time after 100lb weight loss through dieting. I have a vertical crease / fold and loose skin at the top of my abdomen & it is really getting me down. My surgeon said that the only way to correct this would be a FDL with vertical scar (which I am not keen on having). I am due to see him again in September.
