Abdominoplasty - Milwaukee,WI
Tummy Tuck with rectus muscle plication & Liposuction of the flank - Patient 240
32 year old woman | 5’7″ | 120 lbs.
Bothered by bulging (muscle separation), stretch marks, and loose skin
This young woman really disliked the abdominal muscle separation that occurred following three pregnancies; she described her central abdomen as “mush”. In addition, she was unhappy with the loose skin that covered her belly button and produced wrinkles over her lower abdomen. Examination showed a protrusion of the central abdomen from a rectus muscle separation of almost 6cm. Many stretch marks were visible on the lower abdominal skin which was very loose. An abdominoplasty with umbilical transposition was performed; plication of the rectus muscle diastasis was performed above and below the umbilicus. Liposuction was used on each flank to improve contour.
22 month post-operative photos show her nice results. She is pleased.
