This 34 year old patient from San Diego, California was interested in abdominal surgery. After having 2 children the patient was left with damaged abdominal muscles and extra/loose skin and extreme abdominal wall separation. She read several testimonials from Dr. Pousti’s mommy makeover patients and decided to meet with Dr. Pousti.

The patient felt extrememly comfortable after meeting with Dr. Pousti and felt he was overly qualified to perform her tummy tuck surgery. Before the mommy makeover procedure is performed Dr. Pousti discusses the procedure in detail. The markings of the exact incision are then done and the patient proceeds to the operating room.

During the mommy makeover and abdominoplasty procedure the abdominal muscles are repaired with internal suturing. As you can see the patient has severe muscle laxity.

After muscle repair the excess skin is then removed and the incision is closed. During this procedure a new belly button is made as well.

The patient is extremely happy with the results of her tummy tuck procedure and loves her new body.
