How To Deal With Tummy Tuck Scars?
Scars after a tummy tuck are inevitable considering the fact that an incision is made over the abdomen to get rid of fats and stretch the skin. People who go for a tummy tuck are usually women who recently gave birth and have loose skin along with stretch marks over their stomach as well as obese people with fats over their abdomens. Surgeons usually urge their patients to wear only their undergarments during their consultation. This is because it helps the surgeon determine the position of the incision as well as where the scar would occur before time. If the patient has to go for a complex surgery, a horizontal incision from hip to hip is made very low so that the scars are not visible. Vertical tummy tuck scars also take place which range from top of the abdomen to downwards between the ribs. This results in an upturned T-shaped scar, but the decision regarding which incision you would depend totally on your doctor.
