PANNI patients..
From what I was told, hey remove the belly button and can pull the skin down, then reattach it, BUT you will still have some "pooch" there. I had my surgeon show me what would be left if I didn't have the anchor, and if I bent over, it still hung.....
Now - MultiMom had a panni and she's really happy with the area above her belly button - she may chime in soon.

I guess my Dr. turned my procedure in to insurance as just a panni, because that's what all the nurses in the hospital called it and that's what they wrote on my MLOA paperwork for my job, but I got a full curcumfrienctial abdominoplasty with an anchor cut. I had a triple panniculus and they told me without the anchor cut I would still have the "muffin top" so that's what they did.
It was..for about 2 days. The husband said you don't even really notice. I didn't believe him but everybody I have showed my scar too doesn't say anything about it, then I ask "does it look weird?" They always say the same thing, " no the scar looks great, it's so thin" I say " no, I mean no belly button?" They get this shocked look and say "whoa, no kidding! I didn't even notice".
What IS weird, is when I rub UNDER my scar at the top of my thigh, very lightly.. I feel a twinge ABOVE the scar about 5 inches like I am actually rubbing there. THAT was weird. =) nerves are crazy fun

It really depends on what your surgeon is willing to do for a panni removal.
Check out my pics - I think I am a good example of a double fold and what a crappy panni job will give you.

The album to the right marked 'Pre op pics' is the before and after on the panni
The other is the before and afters from my anchor cut TT and breast lift.
