Tummy Tuck: Before & After Photos
Surgeries performed by award winning Los Angeles plastic surgeon, Dr. Kenneth Hughes
Tummy tuckĀ is a surgery that removes skin and subcutaneous tissue from the abdomen and tightens the abdominal wall.
Before | After |
This patient underwent tummy tuck with loose skin removal, and muscle repair or plication, and no liposuction of the waist. As you can see, a very square individual almost always benefits from 360 degree liposuction (liposuction of the abdomen, sides, lower back, flanks, and bra rolls or circumferential trunk liposuction). The mommy makeover can consist of tummy tuck, liposuction, breast augmentation, breast lift, and several other procedures as well. Dr. Hughes performs all of these procedures in combination routinely in his Los Angeles surgery center.

Before | After |
Dr. Hughes performs many tummy tucks for thinner patients or for patients who have less skin to pull. The key to achieving a low scar in these patients and avoiding a vertical scar is in the method of dissection and the complete release of the abdominal flap as well as adequate muscle plication or tightening. Dr. Hughes performs a large number of tummy tuck revisions to correct some of these issues later in patients who choose to have surgery elsewhere the first time around.

Before | After |
This tummy tuck patient had no liposuction. This would have helped the waist hip ratio. However, the transformation was dramatic. Notice the belly button is natural.

Before | After |
Note the precise placement of the incisions and the belly button and the dramatic improvement in contour. Also note the dark scar, which reflects an early result. This scar will fade over time and will look as good as possible. Patients should always be aware that the perfect tummy tuck result is dramatic improvement in contour with a low, symmetric scar and an unobtrusive belly button. The width of the scar and color of the scar is a function of intrinsic patient healing characteristics and has nothing to do with the technical expertise of the surgeon. Dr. Hughes does not accept credit for fine, unnoticeable scars, and he does not accept criticism for wide or pigmented scars. Dr. Hughes is however a published scar and scar revision expert, and he will employ the scientifically supported best therapy or surgical treatment for scar improvement.
