Having previously undergone an aggressive liposuction procedure, I've experienced complications with my compression garment, which was too tight, causing creases and fibroids on my upper abdomen. Would I be a suitable candidate for a tummy tuck following these complications?
Irregularities that arise from liposuction may be related to skin laxity that cannot fully contract after volume loss. A tummy tuck, which includes skin tightening, may be the most suitable procedure. I recommend seeking an evaluation from a board-certified plastic surgeon for a proper assessment.
Thank you for sharing your photos with us. Although it is challenging to provide a definitive recommendation without an in-person examination, based on the photos, you may benefit from a tummy tuck procedure. Liposuction alone may not be sufficient for individuals with significant excess skin in the midsection. Ideal candidates for a full tummy tuck include women with sagging abdomens post-pregnancy, individuals who have lost a significant amount of weight, menopausal women, and older individuals with loose skin due to aging. During a tummy tuck, the skin from the rib cage down to the pelvic area is tightened, and the position of the belly button is adjusted. I suggest scheduling a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon to discuss your options in more detail.
