Tummy Tuck Before & After Case 17

Hernia Repair, Liposuction & Tummy Tuck for Collingwood Resident Worth Trip to Toronto:

This 42 Year old woman living in the Blue Mountain area in Ontario was first referred to see Dr. Weinberg at Meaford Hospital. An active and youthful personality, she enjoyed working out, walking, running and biking regularly. She was unhappy with the appearance of her abdomen, not liking the hanging skin and rippling, and felt its appearance made her look older. Dr. Weinberg evaluated her and found her to have an umbilical hernia as well as some muscular “diastasis” or separation with poor muscle tone and excess skin. She also did not like the asymmetric appearance of her inner thighs with fat accumulation. She underwent a hernia repair, liposuction to the thighs and abdomen and a tummy tuck. Toronto is a popular clinic for many patients, but Mississauga was an easy drive from Collingwood home. Her surgery was complete in 2 and a half hours. She did well and used an abdominal binder over the next couple of weeks. At 12 days after surgery she was feeling so well she inquired whether she could resume cardio exercise and was advised that she needed to wait another 2 to 3 weeks; and resume abdominal exercises in 4 to 6 weeks. She was also advised she could substitute Spanx for her abdominal binder when attending social engagements at that point.
