Tummy Tuck Before & After Case 171

After having 3 children via C-section, this 40-year-old woman did not like the appearance of her bulging abdominal muscles and umbilical hernia. She sought the expertise of board-certified plastic surgeon Kent V. Hasen, M.D. after being referred by some of his past patients.  

Since this patient did not have very much excess abdominal skin, Dr. Hasen determined she was a good candidate for a mini tummy tuck at his Naples, FL practice. This surgery involves removing a small amount of skin at the C-section scar, tightening the stretched out abdominal muscles, removing excess fat with liposuction, and repairing the umbilical (belly button) hernia.
