Is Revision Tummy Tuck surgery Possible for Me?
I had Tummy Tuck surgery three years ago to improve my looks and give me more confidence, but instead I feel I have allowed myself to be mutilated. My scar is too high and my belly button has moved too far down and to the right. How can these problems be fixed without having another surgery? Is it even possible?
Tummy Tuck Revisions
Improving the appearance of your abdominoplasty may be possible but not without additional surgery. In my San Francisco area practice we have seen a number of patients for abdominoplasty revision (including patients unhappy with their belly button look or position). These can be very challenging cases and sometimes patients will have additional scars from umbilicus repositioning (sometimes it is not possible to pull enough skin down to get rid of the old scar). If you're willing to consider additional surgery I'd suggest speaking to your previous surgeon about your concerns. If you're not comfortable with that, definitely find a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss your situation. I hope this helps!
