Chapters

Today we're performing an abdominoplasty, also known as a tummy tuck, and we're removing all the excess skin from just above the belly button down to the pubic area and from hip to hip.
All of this is all going— everything is going to get pulled. Massive amount of tissue that we're going to remove. All of this is coming off. It's amazing. This is her belly button. It's actually quite long because it's very thick. It was pulling on everything, so everything is— oh my God, it's amazing. Look at that. It's sitting just like this.
The results are dramatic. The tattoo has been repositioned and saved. I'm very happy with the incision. Looks very nice and smooth. There are 2 drains placed on each side. She is shown before and after the procedure with the same camera, same positions, and similar lighting. The tattoo is now elongated in the vertical direction. Where it once was only above the belly button, now it is above, around, and below the belly button. During the recovery process, she shared her experience on social media, It's insane how happy and confident she was now.
So we're about 4 and a half months from her tummy tuck. You look great. How do you like it? I love it. A little spin to the side and side. Yeah, and then back to the other side. Yeah, that looks so good. We're very happy for you.
Her journey has not stopped with the surgery. She has continued on with a very healthy lifestyle, regular exercise, and great eating habits.
