Hello, I gave birth to my only son February 2023. I am not having any more children. I am considering a mini tummy tuck to correct the c section shelf that I have now. Based on the photos is this a good idea or are there other procedures I should explore? I am 39 years old and have maintained my weight for the last year.
I had lipo 360 done last year and I have a small area of fat on the lower abdomen and excess skin near my belly button that is ruining all my weight loss efforts. Important to note, I do have a small hernia. I am trying to avoid a full tummy tuck. I also heard about belly button surgery. Someone please advise. I have never seen a belly button like mine.
I am 135 lbs. two previous pregnancies. My normal weight is 115-125. I have some loose skin but its not enough for me to want a full tummy tuck with the large scar. Can I get away with a mini tummy tuck or is there another procedure to combat the wrinkled skin?
I am 39 years old, am 5ft 2in tall and weigh 100 pounds and after 3 c-sections (third was vertical) had a lot of loose skin around the bikini line and vertical scar. I just had a mini tummy tuck 2 weeks ago and still see loose skin, along with swelling and bruising. Is that normal? Will it tighten up and when?
If I would like a mini tummy tuck, will my muscles get repaired also? I hear it's usually below the naval only. I have checked to see how far apart they are, and from what I can feel, they are pretty close together along the top of my stomach, and close together beneath the belly button, but they seem to be 2 1/2 finger gaps apart just under the belly button area. Would this get sorted? I also have a small hernia (which getting corrected seperatly on the NHS).
Hi Docs I had an Avelar mini tuck done combined with Vaser lipo. Still not seeing much results 6 months post the procedure. I recently went to a physio therapist who suggested that I have diastasis recti, although my surgeon says its a hernia. Could that be the reason Im not seeing much results?
Hi Im 8 m postpartum from 1st pregnancy/c-section and have concerns about my stuck scar. I also have diastasis but I am hoping I can heal that with exercise over the next few of months. My scar however has not been responding to months of massage/cupping. The fold/lip/ overhang really bothers me. I dont have much fat or excess skin. Assuming that I fix my DR with exercise, can the scar be fixed with a mini tummy tuck or some other less invasive approach? Or would it require a full tummy tuck?
Top portion is hanging over scar also. Dr drew short very low line day of ... you can see scar is very high and very long .. She also insisted on flank lipo .. but went in at widest hips location. Those incisions became very infected and I am being treated by another doctor. I am trying to remain calm . Very unhappy .. thank you
