Tummy Tuck Before & After Case 47

From Northern Ontario Tummy Tuck Surgery Worth The Trip.

This 52 year old receptionist , and mother of three from Huntsville didn’t like the loose , wrinkling skin of her abdomen. In addition to her three pregnancies, she had undergone tubal ligation surgery. Dr. Weinberg determined that the appearance of her abdomen was due to loose, separated and stretched muscles, an umbilical hernia, and considerable lax skin. She underwent a four and a half hour tummy tuck. During the surgery an elliptical 780 gram piece of excess skin and fat was removed, and the hernia was repaired. Her abdominal muscles were tightened, and liposuction was used on either side of the abdomen to smooth her shape. Done prior to the  development of the “ No Drains” method of Tummy Tuck, drains were used and removed several days later at a follow up appointment. She applied Cicaplast ointment to her incision, and wore an abdominal binder for 5 weeks, but was back to most of her regular activities with a couple of weeks.
