Before and after abdominoplasty and liposuction in a 41 year old mother of four. She wanted her previously flat belly back and to not feel like her stomach “was falling out during planking and yoga”!
A tummy tuck removed excess skin and fat from her lower belly, including many stretch marks. Her rectus abdominis muscles were repaired to one another back in the midline, having being stretched apart after her multiple pregnancies.
Her upper abdominal skin was tautly downward to redistribute her loose upper tummy skin downwards and to redrape it to its new form. Liposuction completed the procedure, removing excess unwanted fat from her upper and lower abdomen, flanks, pubic region and upper inner thighs.
Early follow up photos are shown at 10 weeks after surgery. She has started scar therapy and resumed exercise. Planking is now fun for her! It will take up to a full year for her scars to fade and every last once of swelling to be gone.
