She looks forward to wearing a bikini now - which only 3 years ago seemed like an impossible dream - and form fitting outfits present the type of silhouette she's always wanted.

Postpartum tummy tuck before and after skin#
In order to correct the excess skin tissue and laxity, the patient decided to undergo a full abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) with plication (tightening) of the rectus sheath (abdominal muscles). While the weight loss was extremely beneficial to her overall health, it also left her with skin laxity both above and below the umbilicus (belly button) which no amount of exercise was able to tighten or reduce. This set of abdominoplasty before and after photos features a 46 year old (5'1") woman from Niskayuna NY who underwent gastric bypass surgery 3 years ago and as a result, lost over 100 pounds. She feels excellent about her new, more shapely figure and the newfound confidence it brings. Dresses, which used to bulge out in middle over folds or rolls, now taper in at the waist. There is no longer any overhanging, loose or droopy skin in the lower belly nor excess bulk in her flanks (love handles) or hips. Her midsection is now firm and flat instead of round and flabby. The post operative course was unremarkable (complication free) and photos taken 3 months after surgery show a beautiful and well healed result. To correct these issues, a full abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) that included aggressive plycation of the rectus sheath and liposuction of the posterior/lateral hips was performed. The pannus created an overabundance of loosely hanging skin in lower belly area and an overly round midsection. What bothered her most, though, was the large abdominal pannus (lower belly roll) which did not respond to either diet or exercise. The procedure went well but unfortunately left her with a vertical scar extending both above and below the belly button. Earlier in the year she had an exploratory laparotomy which required a periumbilical incision. She is 5 ft 2 in tall and 172 lbs - which is a stable weight for her.

Her thighs and hips have also diminished in size. It is flat with nice definition of the underlying musculature. She maintained her compression for 3 weeks and gradually resumed normal activities. Postoperative course was unremarkable and she did quite well. In order to correct the results of major weight loss she underwent a full abdominoplasty with liposuction to the hips, medial and posterior thighs with 3700 cc of infiltrate and approximatley 3200 cc removed. Examination confirmed laxity both above and below the umbillicus and a bit of fullness in the hips and posterior thigh region. What was a concern to her was her abdomen as well as some fullness in the postlateral medial thigh area. She is 5' 4" tall and presently 152 lbs but has lost 80 lbs through working out.
