My dtr says that I would have to exercise to get rid of the upper part and I do as well as eat right- but it doesn't go away- I am tired of the pregnant comments? I can't afford another surgery!!! I am not trusting of my PS.
Answer: Why is my upper stomach sticking out after a full Tummy Tuck? It's has been 18 months and I look 7 months pregnant. I'm sorry that you are unhappy with your results. As the others have said, photos are needed to comment on your particular situation. Until then, it would be a good idea to go see a board certified plastic surgeon for a 2nd opinion and go from there. If you have pre-op photos you can bring to your consultation that may help. Good luck. ac

Answer: Fullness in the upper abdomen If the fullness was present prior to surgery, a reverse upper abdominoplasty could have addressed that issue. This procedure is not for everyone. It is ideal for women with somewhat full breasts so the incisions can be hidden in the natural crease of the breasts where the scars will not be visible when standing. I typically perform this procedure in conjunction with a mini-lower abdominoplasty when I feel it is the best choice for my patient. But, it can be performed alone, if a patient has received a traditional abdominoplasty elsewhere and still has concerns about the upper abdomen.
