Unhappy with TT results after 7 months. Why did this not work on me? (Photo)

Question

I had my TT in Feb 2021 and am unhappy with the results. I can’t see a single but of difference and it’s been 7 months. I have since lost 5 pounds, workout 4 times a week, eat 1100 calories or less a day and still do not see a difference apart from the scar. Why did this not work on me?!

Dear Cosmequeen,
I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what went wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment or ask for a second opinion. Only after a thorough examination, you can get proper recommendations and advice

Patients who are dissatisfied with results after plastic surgery are best served by going back and seeing their surgeon to discuss the aspects that are less than ideal. Your surgeon best knows what happened in the operating room and what can be expected after recovery.

Camille Cash, MD · Answer

I'm sorry that you are unhappy with your tummy tuck.  I encourage you to return to your surgeon to discuss your concerns.  If there is fatty tissue on the sides, it can be addressed with liposuction.  Your surgeon is most familiar with your surgical plan and how you've been progressing through recovery.
