The Dreaded Front Butt – Solutions From a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

Most women are thrilled when they find out that they are going to hear the pitter patter of little feet. They dream of decorating the perfect nursery with cute little animals or ribbons and bows. They lovingly purchase clothing and mounds of diapers. Car seats are researched and compared. Cribs are purchased and put together. The nine months fly by in a blur of excitement, shopping and firsts. Every Mom remembers the first time they hear their baby’s heartbeat or feel the little flutter of new legs earning to kick.

We meet with our OBGYN and devise the perfect birth plan…. Sometimes things do not go according to plan and a Cesarean Section is required to safely deliver that precious baby. Mom may have a scar but who cares when all you see are those beautiful eyes looking into yours for the very first time…. Fast forward a few years…maybe there are more babies…maybe more C-Sections….one day your kids start school and you zip up your pants and suddenly realize you have a “front butt” If you have to ask what this is you obviously do not have one, but for those curious minds, a “front butt” is a layman’s term frequently used to describe the culmination of skin and fat that rests on either side of a vertical cesarean section scar. It may take a little time for the area to develop into the “front butt” but eventually most women are really bothered by this.

This, my friends, is why God made amazing female plastic surgeons. They get it…They understand how hard it is to grow a baby. They understand that a “front butt” can snap confidence quicker than a dried out twig baking in the hot August sun.

It really limits clothing choices because the “front butt” requires more room that your hips and thighs… and dresses? Forget it -unless you want people guessing if you are or are in “the family way” again. Female Plastic Surgeon’s understand how a Mom takes a backseat to her children until that one day when they realize it’s their turn to do something for themselves.

The abdominoplasty is the best cure for the dreaded “front butt”. A talented board-certified plastic surgeon can release that scar and create a new one- a horizontal one that can be hidden by even the skimpiest of bikinis. You will now be able to open yourself to clothing choices that will make your teenager daughter envious.

You can be “you” again- with one single surgery.
