I had the same thing. I had to do lipo around those bulging areas.

Thanks. I thought about lipo to fix the bulges, but it would still be saggy around my belt area. Plus, she tried a little lipo on my left
side but it did nothing. Ugh! nothing. I hope everything worked out for you.

It's not perfect and the lipo doesn't fully get rid of the bulges. Im just accepting it. I wear spanks that help a lot!!

The point in getting a tummy tuck is to be nice and smooth with a svelte look and tossing the dreaded Spanx. Some clothes I still cannot wear like the pink one in the picture since it looks like I still have a pooch on my lower abdomen. The only thing I'll be accepting is almost perfection. I'm still waiting until then. Wishing the best for you!

Mine looks just like your and I want to tell my plastic surgeon but I wonder if he’ll fix it. You don’t think your scar is too high on the sides

Yes, my scar is way too high. It is far above my panty line. It's a couple inches from my waist which I can't wear crop tops like I want to. If I do, I have to wear high waist pants and make sure to keep pulling them up so my scar won't be seem. Definitely ask if he can do something about it. I've complained to my surgeon but keep hearing to wait and see, but it has not gotten any better. Let me know how it goes. Best wishes...

10 Month Update

It's been about 10 months since my tummy tuck procedure and I am still not satisfied. I have voiced my concerns to my PS but am told to wait and see. I have had an in office procedure to snip my small dog ears and extra skin around my belly button. Still the skin around my belly button is still puffy. My lower abdomen still sticks out a bit and I Still have some saggy skin that is super noticeable when I sit and bend over. It is not smooth and I have some side fat that I don't like, which I asked about lipo initially but was told I didn't need it. Anyway, here is my update. I had another office procedure that was canceled on May 4th, I guess due to Covid to get more skin. Waiting.
