Tummy Tuck Before & After Case 13

Improved Tummy and Hip Appearance after Liposuction & Tummy Tuck, Mississauga.

This 55 year old active wife and mother was unhappy with the appearance of her abdomen, hips and thighs. She initially was interested in liposuction, but at 155 lb she had lost weight and had loose hanging skin with cellulite over the abdominal wall. She was referred to Toronto tummy tuck surgeon Dr. Michael Weinberg by a friend. She was familiar with the surgical process and recovery as she had undergone previous breast reduction surgery. Dr. Weinberg discussed her options and advised her to lose a bit more weight over the following 3 to 4 months prior to surgery. She was aware of what to expect from the scar as a family member had had a tummy tuck in Toronto. Tummy tuck seemed to be the best option after some discussion with Dr. Weinberg, and for her hip rolls and thighs she was to be treated with liposuction. Mississauga and Toronto patients have the option of having their surgery at Trillium hospital where Dr. Weinberg is Chief of Plastic Surgery. This patient underwent her combination tummy tuck, liposuction procedure in hospital and stayed overnight. Challenges with the surgery, which took 2 and half hours, included the considerable thickness of the upper abdominal skin. She recovered very well, and can be seen to have an excellent result from the post operative photos taken some months later. She continues to attend the clinic for botox cosmetic and skin care.
