Achieve the Results You Deserve with a Revision Procedure
A tummy tuck is intended to provide patients with smoother, more defined, and slimmer contours. However, in some cases, a tummy tuck procedure may not go as planned, leading to unsatisfactory results and unhappy patients. Thankfully, a revision tummy tuck performed by a highly experienced and qualified plastic surgeon can address and correct these issues, giving patients the beautiful results they initially desired.
There are several reasons why a patient may require a tummy tuck revision:
- Unusual Scarring: Excessive or unsightly scars may be evident after a poorly executed tummy tuck.
- Uneven Fat Distribution: A poorly performed tummy tuck can result in the appearance of a “shelf” or uneven distribution of fat tissue on the abdomen.
- Contour Irregularities: Lumps, bumps, or an irregular texture of the skin can occur due to a poorly executed tummy tuck.
- Misshapen Belly Button: Moving the belly button is a part of the tummy tuck procedure. When this is done incorrectly, the belly button may appear unattractive or misshapen.
- Weight Fluctuation: While not directly related to a botched tummy tuck, significant weight fluctuations can necessitate revision surgery.
