I am now 6 months from my abdominoplasty or tummy tuck surgery last March. After losing 112 pounds, I had quite a bit of extra skin. Dr. Bashioum and his staff took care of this for me. He tightened up the ‘lazy’ muscles and tightened up the skin. It looks great!
I would recommend Dr. Bashioum to everyone. He and all of the staff did a great job!
Dr. Bashioum replies:
Thank you for your kind comments, Teri. Over 150,000 women chose tummy nipntucks in the US each year. Many patients opt for this surgery as part of the mommy make-over , while others have lost a significant amount of weight like Teri has done before considering surgery. I find that patient satisfaction is extremely high following this kind of surgery.
Mini Nipntuck Tummy-tuck
June 16th, 2011
A mini-tummy tuck is a procedure especially designed for women who do not need the more extensive muscle repair of a full tummy tuck. The mini-nipntuck takes advantage of the less invasive liposuction technique to decrease the “muffin top†bulge. Secondly, excision of extra skin helps to smooth out the stomach, improving the appearance of a protruding tummy. Women with bothersome C-section scars also benefit from this new specialized procedure.
Recovery is much quicker than that of a traditional abdominoplasty and patients usually resume their normal activities within three to five days.
