My stomach seems bloated at the top part of my stomach and I dont know if lipo will fix it or I need a tummy tuck. I have issues with the top portion of my stomach being bloated or extra fat and my lower belly also has either fat or loose skin. I want a flat stomach but nothing dramatic so Im not sure if lipo can solve these problems. Whats your advice for me based on my pictures. I am 51 and weigh 130. Thank you.
I had a tummy tuck with muscle repair along with lipo of my back and arms in July '20. After the initial swelling my abdomen was nice and flat. Fast forward 10 months later I look bloated and pregnant. Had an ultrasound done and no hernia, my organs are fine and so on. Also had my PT check for any diastisis recti and my muscle repair is intact. I have no pain except discomfort when I eat a lot. I've reached out to the plastic surgeon to let him know the results. What could be causing this?

In September 2020 I had a tummy tuck and waited for the swelling to go down. The doc did drain the swelling a couple of times and then there was nothing left to drain. But I had what looked like a pool noodle around my waist. I hated it and it took its toll on my confidence. April of 2021 I had a revision and still have a bulge above my scar that looks like I'm bloated and I can pinch it like it's fat. I have not gained weight and am very active. Help, how do I get rid of it?!
I only have a 1 - 2 cm diastasis recti but my lower abdomen swells throughout the day when I eat or drink the smallest amounts so that I end up looking 5 months pregnant. I dont really have much loose skin and Im slim. Will a tummy tuck be able to tighten my lower abdomen or is a diastasis repair the only thing that can be done to stop my stomach swelling so much? In which case not really going to help my situation. Ive spent 18 months with a womens health trying to tighten my core muscles b
I am 5'2 and my BMI is 26.5 and wear a size small. I have regretted my TT with all the misery I am experiencing. I never wake up flat feeling ..EVER. I am constantly bloated, tight, swollen sides etc.. in my upper abdominal area only. It started after my 3rd month. I feel horrible and SO tight all the time. I have to wear my binder so much now to just get some temporary relief. Could it be possible something was left in side of me? My dr. Said it could last up to 2 years..that is nuts.
I had a tummy tuck and muscle repair in 2019. Im pregnant with my third child which is my first after my tummy tuck. I am currently 21 weeks pregnant and my lower abdomen is almost flat but my upper abdomen is bloating large towards the end of the day. Is this a normal thing to occur?
Hi, I partook in a mommy makeover two years ago. After healing and consultation from a surgeon my left abdominal wall of my muscle repair was unsuccessful my stomach looks lopsided. Is there a way for me to tighten? as one surgeon informed me that I do not have enough skin to endure another tummy tuck. I dont know if you can tell from photos but when I am bloated the top part of my belly inflates and its uncomfortable. Please help
Ive contacted a few plastic surgeons in my area and they dont perform endoscopic tummy tucks. I dont have any fat or loose skin but my stomach does pop out. I look extremely bloated. I believe this is caused by my diastasis recti. My stomach feels hard and its uncomfortable. I also have a lot of lower back pain. I had my second baby 18 months ago and its not getting better. Any recommendations for finding a surgeon wholl perform this surgery?
I have spoken to my surgeon and want to see what other surgeons suggest. I have endometriosis on my muscle wall and want it removed during my tummy tuck. It causes me a great deal of pain and bloating can this be done
