Revision Tummy Tuck Before & After Case 2567

This patient underwent a revision tummy tuck in Los Angeles to address issues following a previous abdominal surgery. She experienced a diastasis, or separation of her abdominal muscles, which impacted the aesthetics and function of her midsection. Prior to her revision procedure, her incision site was positioned high, requiring her to wear undergarments specifically to conceal the scar. Post-surgery images show a notable improvement, as her incision is now low on the abdomen and covered easily by regular clothing.

Dr. David Stoker performed a thorough muscle repair using a two-layer technique to reinforce the abdominal wall. The patient's belly button was reconstructed and repositioned for a more natural appearance. In the post-operative period, she showed mild bruising, a typical finding after such procedures. Steri-strip tape remains on the incision to support optimal healing, expected to be removed after her return home.

This patient, a physician herself, communicated closely with Dr. Stoker throughout her care. Her medical background and her husband's experience as a physician enabled her to approach her recovery with confidence, even as she returned to Florida just 10 days after surgery.
