Can a person who had a vertical c-section be able to get a tummy tuck?


Question:


Answers:
Stomach Tightening (Abdominoplasty or Lipectomy)
Nowhere else is pregnancy more evident than a woman's abdomen. It was the nine-month home to your infant. It's also the place where stretch marks, C-section scars and loose skin may linger long after childbirth. These "badges of motherhood" can frustrate and depress a woman even as she rejoices at the life her body helped create. Lipectomy is a procedure that can remove the "pooch" of excess skin that lies below your navel. It can get rid of stretch marks and turn a very visible vertical C-section scar into a small bikini line that's easy to conceal. Many women have this operation done at the same time as a tubal ligation or a hysterectomy. Your plastic surgeon may admit patients to the hospital for one or two days. If you have only a small amount of excess skin, you may be a candidate for a mini-lipectomy (a less extensive procedure often done under local anesthetic) that still yields an impressive improvement.
