Tummy Tuck Case #162

This is a 44 year old Hispanic mother of 4 who came to our office from Katy, TX, desiring a flatter and more sculpted abdomen. During the surgeon’s physical exam, poor elasticity to the lower abdominal skin and presence of a C-section scar was discovered.  The patient was a perfect candidate for an abdominoplasty (tummy tuck). The procedure was performed in our private surgical suite in Webster, Texas, and the patient went home the same day. The excess skin was removed and the muscles were tightened. Liposuction was also used around the hips to achieve the desired look. Two days later she walked back in to our office for her first follow up visit doing well. Her photos were taken at her 3 month follow-up appointment. The patient loved her new flat tummy!
