Revision Tummy Tuck Before & After Case 2700

This patient, a 50-year-old woman, had lost more than 100 pounds approximately a decade before coming to Dr. David Stoker for a bikini body lift, which included revision of her prior tummy tuck. The revision addressed her previous abdominoplasty while also incorporating a pubic lift. The photos shown are three months after surgery.

The before images show significant skin laxity across the abdomen and thighs, with visible contour irregularities along the buttocks and upper legs. In the after images, the abdominal profile is notably flatter, and the waistline shows a more defined curve. The pubic area sits higher and lies flatter against the body. Along the posterior view, the buttocks retain rounded projection, and the thigh contour shows less dimpling compared to the before photos.

For those researching a revision tummy tuck in Los Angeles, this case illustrates what revision surgery can address in a patient who has already undergone a prior abdominoplasty: the incision was repositioned low on the abdomen, and the pubic lift was added as part of the same procedure. Dr. Stoker notes that the belly button area and surrounding scars were still maturing at the three-month mark.

The lateral views highlight the continuity of the result, with a smooth transition from the abdomen through the hips and into the posterior thigh. The patient's curves along the buttocks were maintained rather than reduced.
