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). In this photograph you can see the sagging and wrinkled skin on my hips and belly. I was hoping that having a lateral thigh lift with my tummy tuck operation would solve this problem. Note: for my operation they extended the incision line along the sides and back and removed the sagging skin from around my entire mid-section.

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 (See my "Before" Pictures), I decided to look into a Tummy Tuck operation.
