This is a picture I took before I had my Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)
Plastic Surgery with Lateral Thigh Lift to remove excess sagging skin
from my midsection (150 lb. weight loss).
This photograph was taken one week after my tummy tuck with lateral
thigh lift operation and shows my scars and swelling. I was surprised to
see that the incision line around my mid-section was not straight and
even. I asked my surgeon about why that was and he simply said because
the body was not even. Read My Story and see more

Background: I am a
54 year old man who is 5' - 7 1/2" tall and had attained a weight of
over 300 pounds. Over 2 years of dieting and daily exercise I reduced my
weight to 155lbs (lost
over 150 pound weight loss). This left me with a lot of excess skin
around my belly and midsection. Since I didn't want to live with this
for the rest of my life, I decided to look into a Tummy Tuck operation.
