Adbdominoplasty or "tummy tuck" in 40 year old woman

before
after

This case depicts a 40 year old woman who had borne three children via c-section.  Her c-section resulted in a vertical scar starting immediately below the belly button or umbilicus. She had extra fat beneath the abdominal skin, in addition to a noticeable c-section scar. 

During her surgery, the abdominal wall was tightened, portions of the excess fat beneath the skin were removed and the entire vertical c-section scar was removed. The post-operative photographs depict this woman's appearance approximately one month after surgery.
