This patient in her early forties came to the office to discuss an Abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck) with Dr. Connors. Her main concern was with the excess skin left on her abdomen after pregnancy. She also wanted to address the fullness in her mid and lower abdomen caused by the separation of her abdominal muscles (Diastasis Recti) which is very common after pregnancy. Upon examination, Dr. Connors felt she was the perfect candidate for a Standard Abdominoplasty procedure. Dr. Connors made an incision in the patient's supra-pubic region and removed the excess skin from her abdomen. He also repaired the separation in her abdominal muscles. The result of the procedure left the patient with a tight, flat midsection and she absolutely loves it!
