Muffin top, hanging belly, and loose skin - Do I need a tummy tuck revision? (photos)

Exquisite645710
I'm 5'6, 169 pounds. I had a TT with muscle repair six months ago. Standing up I look good (aside from some asymmetry on my left hip), but when I sit down, I still have a muffin top and when I bend over, I still have a rounded hanging belly with lots of loose wrinkly skin, just like I did before surgery. My surgeon says if he pulls me tighter, it might cause wound healing issues because of my skin laxity. He never mentioned my skin laxity in any of my consults. Do I need a revision?
