Tummy Tuck Case 908

This patient, a 61-year-old woman, came to us with excess skin following weight loss, along with stretch marks from pregnancies. A tummy tuck addressed the loose, overhanging abdominal skin visible in the before photo, where significant skin laxity extended from the midsection downward.

The before photo shows a pronounced forward projection of the lower abdomen, with folds of redundant skin visible along the midsection and below. In the after photo, the abdominal profile is notably flatter, with a horizontal scar visible low on the abdomen and a more defined waistline apparent from the side.

For anyone researching a tummy tuck in Columbus, this case illustrates what the procedure can address in a patient dealing with loose abdominal skin and stretch marks. The photos show a meaningful reduction in skin excess across the midsection compared to the before images.
