Answer: Abdominoplasty panniculectomy For the pictures that you send, you need a full abdominoplasty with muscle repair. Panniculectomy will give you a partial result. Also some liposuccion will help you to contour your body

Answer: Panniculectomy vs tummy tuck for me after 3 c-sections, a set of twins, and I need a hernia repair? Hello! Thank you for your question! Body contouring after scenarios such as yours is very common. You would be an ideal candidate for such and could achieve an excellent result. For semantics, a panniculectomy simply does a wedge excision of the overhanging skin/soft tissue of the lower abdomen (abdominal panniculus), mostly to ameliorate symptoms from it. Typically, an abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) excises this tissue, but also addresses the upper abdomen, the abdominal wall via tightening, and the lateral flanks/hips to improve contour of this area. With the amount of laxity and excess skin that is shown and the likely spreading of your abdominal wall from your prior weight, a tummy tuck would be the ideal procedure for you. The hernia could also be repaired at the same time as this procedure safely and effectively. I truly believe that you would be satisfied with the results from this. Consult with a plastic surgeon well-versed in body contouring to discuss the various options with you and help you to decide which procedure(s) would be the right one for you. Hope that this helps - best wishes for a fantastic result!

Answer: Tummy Tuck verses Pannicolectomy This decision is based on the results you want to achieve and what your final goal is. An abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) consists of removal of the excess skin, the suturing of the internal abdominal muscles helping to elevate the abdominal hernia tendency issue, and if Dr. Lane Smith was doing this procedure he would recommend liposuction of the skin flap that remains, provided you meet the criteria The final result would be a flat tummy with a resolved hernia which would be repaired during surgery as well. The panniculectomy only removes the skin flap not fixing the internal problem of a weak abdominal wall which causes abdominal hernias. When women have children those muscles separate and without suturing them together the mommy stance remains. The mommy stance is what causes the protruding belly appearance. An abdominalplasty can correct that appearance where as a panniculectomy cannot.
