Patient Details
This 45-year-old patient previously underwent a full tummy tuck in 2015 but experienced changes after a subsequent pregnancy, leaving her with lower abdominal bulging, loose skin, and a high inverted V scar. She desired improvement in the lower abdomen only, with a goal of tightening the area and lowering her existing scar. She underwent a mini tummy tuck with trunk liposuction, excision of excess lower abdominal skin, and limited rectus muscle plication below the umbilicus to address these concerns. The result is a smoother, flatter lower abdomen with improved contour and a lower, more concealed scar. This procedure was performed by Dr. Traci Temmen in Tampa, Florida, highlighting how a mini tummy tuck can effectively target the lower abdomen after prior surgery or pregnancy.
