Hi! I had a tummy tuck 6 months ago and Im really unhappy with my belly button. I dont like the look of it when just standing straight but it also moves with my movement. As you can see in the photos a little it bulges out or pulls in based on which side I lean towards. Its also not centered as you can see here. I have an appointment to go over these things with my surgeon although I was told I would have to wait a year before anything could be done. My questions: 1. Is it a good idea to have the same surgeon do any revision to my belly button? I know all surgeons need revisions sometimes but is this something that seems anyone could have potentially had this result or with what Im dealing with suggests I should see someone else to revise? 2. Is there a way to make the whole belly button more of an innie? 3. Ive heard belly button revisions are fairly simple but what all does it actually entail? Feeling discouraged as I waited so long to do this and while I still have many benefits from the surgery, I still dont feel comfortable showing my stomach because of my belly button. Thank you!
Updated: Tummy tuck & BBL. - My belly button was not on the right side. She was too busy to get off the phone when she marked me and marked my line off-center. Never was my belly button to the right of my center. She has avoided me from the first office visit after surgery when I asked about it. Beware of doctors that blame the patient. .
Im a 27 year old female who lost 145lb. I have a lot of loose skin on my abdomen but it retracted pretty well for how much weight I have lost. Im in my 4th year of veterinary school and currently on rotations, so I have a limited amount of time (4 weeks) for recovery before returning back to clinics. I was contemplating a TT with no muscle repair as I think it would cut the healing time, but am afraid of looking boxy. I had a consultation with one surgeon who said that I probably could get by without muscle repair, but Ive seen some really bad TTs and am scared.
Hello I had a tummy tuck and I am seeing a fullnes or roundness in my upper belly and in my mons / groin area looks puffy and fully is it normal to look like this ? Do I need Lipo its been 8 months Since my tummy tuck and 4 months since my scar revision
I really would like to get a tummy tuck I. The near future or do anything else meanwhile to tighten loose postpartum skin but Im dreading the long scar and wanted to know if its possible to get a tummy tuck w a shorter incision?
Do you reckon tummy tuck would be best option for this? Im a mumma to 2 girls only 14 months age gap . Laying ultrasound says only 1.8cm gap, waiting to do a standing ultrasound to see if bigger gap. I suffer back pain, comstipation and continence. Also when pregnant with my first I went up to 100kg then after that dropped down to 70kg so massive weight loss too. I am female age 27. Also the youngest of my kids is almost 5 so its been a while
I have had four pregnancies and my upper stomach skin is loose. I am thinking of getting breast implants to fix a loss of volume and was wondering if I could have a reverse tummy tuck at the same time to tighten the skin.
Hi Everyone, Im reaching out to explore options for improving my abdominal area. My main goals are to achieve a more defined waistline, a flatter stomach, and to address some mild fibrosis resulting from a previous liposuction procedure. After completing my military service in 2012, I underwent liposuction/BBL in 2013 at Sono Bello in Beverly Hills. At that time, I weighed around 130 pounds ( I am 58 tall for reference). I am 45 years old. Unfortunately, the results were not ideal, but I moved forward and focused on my responsibilities as a single mom, balancing school and work. Now, I have finally decided to revisit this. Currently, I weigh 125 pounds, but I still have a persistent lower abdominal pooch and lack definition in my abdominal area. Im unsure whether I would benefit more from a mini tummy tuck with Vaser Lipo 360, or if lipo alone would be sufficient. I know that I don't want any ab etching, just a toned, lean & flat tummy. For further context, I have one adult son (age 25) and no other pregnancies. I am highly athletic and work out regularly. I do cardio, weight lifting, pilates, and yoga. I just want to trim all of the fat around my tummy and, for the love of God, get rid of my pooch! I have worked out consistently for the last 20 years. I eat pretty clean and healthy.
