*Here is a 35 year old woman who is unhappy with her abdomen after her pregnancies. She has laxity of her skin and fatty tissue along with stretch marks all which bother her. There is no magic way to get rid of stretch marks but any skin that is removed with a tummy tuck reduced the number of stretch marks in the area where they are typically most pronounced. A tummy tuck was the procedure chosen by her surgeon and herself after much discussion. It was done as an out patient and she had a favorable recovery. At two months after her procedure she is doing exceptionally well back to her normal routine and exercise. Her result is outstanding!
