Tummy Tuck Photos

This patient had a tummy tuck procedure with muscle tightening and a new belly button as is standard. Dr. Hughes pulls the patient waist in from the sides to create a waist taper. Pulling the skin straight down as many surgeons do produces a much more square and boxier look that many patients find objectionable. As Dr. Hughes frequently states it is not just whether or not you can talk about performing a surgery or whether you can sell a surgery to a patient, it is a question of whether you can execute a surgery with precision and nuance that produces the most favorable result.
