Case #2393
Tummy Tuck
Working full time and being a mother of two young kids filled every moment of the 24/7 life of this 42 yo woman. The first child wasn’t so bad, but the second really did a number on her mid-section. At a mere 5’3″ tall, her 140 lb body could barely fit into her size 10 clothes. Plus, the 2 csxns left her with this permanent “ledge” that got in between her and her clothes on a regular basis. She decided it was time to so something about all of the loose skin, the ledge and the weak belly muscles. A little homework on the computer directed her to a possible tummy tuck as a solution.
Her consultation with Dr. Mahony followed a review of the many testimonials she found on the website and internet. The photo gallery was also a plus! She was interested to learn that the type of tummy tuck that Dr. Mahony performed would not only remove the lax skin and dreaded ledge, but also tighten the loose muscles. This was just what she was hoping to accomplish- it was reassuring to know that her expectations would be met.
The day of surgery was smooth sailing and she felt well informed about the recovery process, the discomfort and her follow up appointment schedule. She found that NSAIDs were better for her than pain medicine. She came back to see us over a year after her surgery and is a lean machine, down to 118 lbs and a size 2!! What a pretty sight!
