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 was a massive weight loss patient with extremely loose skin with multiple large and long stretchmarks and multiple scars from previous surgeries. Although the tummy tuck cannot improve the quality of the remaining skin or remove scars high on the abdomen, the change in this patient is dramatic. The scar is low, below the level of her clothing. Notice the very refined belly button, which is often the difference between an average result and an exceptional result. She was extremely happy.

Before | After |
Dr. Hughes in Los Angeles removed almost 16 lbs from this patient with a tummy tuck alone. The postoperative picture is taken much too close as evidenced by the doubling in leg size. However, even in this comparison the tummy is much smaller and flatter.

Before | After |
This patient wanted her noticeable bulge of the abdomen remedied. Dr. Hughes was able to produce a perfectly flat abdomen with a low scar hidden below her clothing. She could have benefited from side or flank liposuction, but the patient was thrilled with her tummy tuck and her mommy makeover.

Before | After |
This tummy tuck procedure removed 8 lbs. of skin and fat and made a dramatic difference. The patient is now scheduled for liposuction in which 5 liters of fat will be removed. Removing 5 liters of fat at the time of tummy tuck probably should not be done due to safety concerns and should be deferred for a later time in larger patients.

Before | After |
This tummy tuck patient had over a foot of skin removed to get to the postoperative result. The end result is smooth and flat and it really is the best tummy tuck result that could be achieved with the starting anatomy. Dr. Hughes sees tummy tuck patients from Los Angeles, Beverly Hills, and from all over the world.

Before | After |
This early result of the tummy tuck shows how Dr. Hughes was able to achieve a dramatic change with a tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) alone. Notice the much improved contour, the removal of loose skin and stretchmarks and the incredibly flat abdomen. Even the abdominal musculature is now visible. No liposuction was performed.

Before | After |
This patient had a tummy tuck to remove the loose skin and fat. Although she could benefit from side or flank liposuction (liposculpture), she was very happy with the improvement.
This is also an illustration of how some people with more pigment in their skin sometimes scar more poorly than lighter skinned people. This is certainly not universal, and previous scarring in an individual is the best predictor of future scarring. This patient had a thickened, widened belly button scar, which when mature after a year, can be revised to improve upon its thickened nature.
