Before and after abdominoplasty as one component of a Mommy Makeover in a 43-year-old woman. Following the birth of her three children, she no longer recognized her belly! She had stretch marks, excess skin, bulging muscles and loss of core strength, in addition to excess fat that was never there before.
An abdominoplasty surgically removed excess fat, repaired her rectus abdominis muscles back together in the midline, and redraped her abdominal wall skin downward. Her belly button was inset through a new skin opening. Liposuction removed excess fat from her upper and lower abdomen, flanks all the way around, pubic region, upper inner thighs and lower back/bra rolls.
Follow up photos are shown 6 months after surgery. Her scars are fading nicely, and she is loving her figure again!
