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 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 had one plastic surgeon tell me I am not a candidate. And then I had a another tell me I first needed to lose weigh. I have since lost 40lbs. I had one pregnancy where I gained 90lbs and lost it all and then maintained my weight until about 2 years ago where I gained 40lbs over 2 years which I've since lost. My lower stomach (below the belly button) has always had a pouch with stretch marks that won't go away even when I'm very thin. It also hangs to the side when I lie down.
I am bigger now than I was at 4 weeks post-op. I wear the compression wrap during workouts and it leaves indents around my abdomen and there is still a small amount of bruising on my flanks. Am I gaining weight again and/or bloated? Should I still be wearing compression garments during strenuous workouts? I am extremely satisfied with my results 4 weeks p/o but feel that my results have been decreasing since - added puffiness. If I am still swollen, what can I do to decrease swelling? Thank you!
I had two C-sections and have some lose skin right over the scar. I want a mini tummy tuck. The estimate I was given over the phone was between $7,500 and $8,500. I live in Houston, TX. I thought it was a bit pricy. Am I wrong?
I'm planning on meeting with some doctors here in Southern California in the next few weeks.Im 30 and work out a lot as well as watch what I eat.I have some loose skin from my twins I just can't get rid of!Also looking for any suggestions/feedback on Drs if you've had a mini!!!!
Had the VSG the Vertical sleeve gastrictomy weight loss surgery two years ago and I've been very concerned with the saggy skin on my lower tummy and inner thighs please see pictures and give me your professional Opinion on which one.
I developed some strange stretch marks right next to my belly button during the last week of pregnancy and they really bother me. Is there anything I could do to treat these other than having a tummy tuck? I think I hate the texture more than anything. Could I have them surgically removed and replaced with a scar? Am I a candidate for a mini tummy tuck? I otherwise am very happy with my stomach and it's a shame these are ruining my recovery.
