     The idea of plastic surgery is kind of new to me, so I don't know a lot. Does a Panniculectomy only take care of the skin below the belly button or the upper part (muffin top) as well? Thanks in advance

It is only the skin below. It does not include any muscle repair or moving bellybutton. The ps could tell you if a panni is what you need. Ave friends who had panni only and were satisfied. It all depends where your skin is and if you need muscle repair. A lower body lift is becoming more popular. If you qualify for panni you can always upgrade to tt

Pretty much below. I know some Dr's will be a little more "creative" with what they do to please insurance companies and make the extras we need a bit more affordable.

 

Good Luck!!!!!
