The Patient's Goals
The result this 42-year-old international patient needed required more than surface tightening. Lower-abdominal skin redundancy, diastasis recti, and a disrupted waist curve had changed the abdominal plane. For Canadian readers comparing tummy tuck before after 42-year-old cases, the key issue is structural repair, not simple size reduction. We planned abdominoplasty to remove excess tissue, repair the midline, and reset the umbilical position with a low, discreet scar placement.
Surgeon's Expert Approach
The technical focus of this procedure was to restore abdominal support while keeping the waistline soft and proportionate. Precision mattered at every layer.
- Midline structural repair: We repaired diastasis recti with controlled plication to improve abdominal wall support and reduce forward bulging through the central abdomen.
- Skin and umbilical refinement: Lower-abdominal tissue was removed through a low transverse incision, with umbilical transposition planned to keep the navel position anatomically balanced.
- Recovery technology framework: The patient completed our recovery programme with HBOT and LLLT, the kind of post-operative structure Canadian patients value when planning surgery abroad.
