Tummy Tuck Case #96

This is a 50 year old mother of two who works for a surgery center in Webster, Texas. She has lost over 70 pounds in the last 2 years through diet and exercise, and was looking for an improved appearance of her abdomen. The patient is 5’9”, weighed 155 pounds and was in overall great shape. During the surgeon’s physical exam, poor elasticity to the mid and lower abdominal skin and the presence of stretch marks were 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. Because of the nature of her job, she returned to work 4 weeks after the procedure. 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.
