Tummy Tuck Before and After > Tummy tuck on a young woman following two c-sections
This patient is a healthy 30 year old white female. She is 5’1” and 145lbs. She’s had two c-sections, but no other surgeries. Following the birth of her children she was bothered by the appearance of her abdomen. She had laxity both above and below the umbilicus with some fullness into the lateral flank area. In order to correct her degree of laxity she required a full abdominoplasty with plication and aggressive liposuction of the hips and flank area. Her surgery was unremarkable and she was back to work after a couple of weeks. Postoperative photos obtained at two months show that she is healing beautifully, her abdomen is flat, she no longer has the lower abdominal over hang and fullness in the waistline. She is beginning more aggressive exercise and is otherwise back to all normal activities. She is quite pleased with her surgical outcome.
