Cleveland Plastic Surgery Case of the Week- Tummy tuck and Liposuction (large volume)

Abdominoplasty and large volume liposuction.

This Cleveland Plastic Surgery patient came to see Dr. Daniel A. Medalie at his Beachwood office to discuss abdominal contouring. She was quite heavy and understood that she would not be perfectly thin after the procedure. She also understood that her stretch marks below the belly button would be gone but that the ones above the belly button and off to the side would remain. She underwent a full tummy tuck with tightening of the rectus abdominus muscles and a pubic lift on an outpatient basis. At the same time as her abdominoplasty, she had large volume liposuction of the abdomen, flanks and sides. She is shown three months after her body surgery and has a much slimmer contour with excellent tightening of the muscles. Her body contouring surgery was a success and gave her the confidence to begin exercising and eating well. (Results from plastic surgery are not guaranteed and may vary)
