Tummy Tuck Case #20

This is a 36 year old working mother of three who came in to our office from Pearland, Texas looking for an improved appearance of her abdomen. The patient is 5’8”, weighs 170 pounds and admits to gaining 20 pounds within the last year. During the surgeon’s physical exam, poor elasticity to the lower abdominal skin and presence of a C-section scar was discovered.  In order to achieve the results the patient was after, the recommendation was 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. Two days later she walked back in to our office for her first follow up visit doing well. Her after pictures were taken 3 months later and although the scar was still a little red, the patient was very pleased with her new flat tummy.
