Sneak peek at this man’s tummy tuck / lower body lift after losing over 150lbs after gastric bypass surgery. We wait for patients to reach a natural plateau so that we can do surgery once and hopefully never again for the same area. A common question people have is about the belly button. It is the same belly button you … Read More

After massive weight loss, the body’s limit is reached for the skin’s ability to bounce back. The extra skin folds can cause rashes, pain, difficulty with clothing options, and self-consciousness. Here, a male breast reduction was performed. Sometimes this may be done through a small incision around the areola or even just liposuction. But if the skin is too excessive, … Read More

A tummy tuck removes the extra skin on the outside of the abdominal wall. Inside of the abdominal wall includes your organs as well as fat. Some people carry more fat inside the abdomen; some more on the outside.

The fascia is usually cinched, and any diastasis recti repaired, but the intraabdominal volume can’t be changed. The contour depends on: The volume and pressure pushing outwards The … Read More

When do I offer a fleur-de-lis style tummy tuck? When a person has significant skin stretch and laxity in a horizontal (side-to-side) direction, in addition to vertical (up-and-down), then we begin the discussion. This does add an additional scar that can be good quality but still be visible. The tradeoff is more narrowing and contouring of the waist, with maximum … Read More

She lost 120 pounds after a weight loss surgery, and had been stable for at least 6 months – the minimum required to be covered by most insurance companies for panniculectomy. Here, we additionally repaired a diastasis recti, and also redraped skin from above the belly button down below. A common question is what happens to the belly button? It … Read More

He lost over 100 pounds and was ready for some contouring. His main goals were improving his gynecomastia (overdevelopment of breast/chest tissue in men) and the extra skin of his abdomen. For the gyencomastia, when there is a greater amount of skin to remove, I favor an incision hidden along the natural inferior fold of the pectoralis. The nipple/areola remain … Read More
