If you haven't already heard, Leona Dieker died from this after her tummy tuck procedure on September 12, 2014. My surgery is scheduled for the November 20th. I'm freaking out.

Answer: Necrotizing fasciitis is almost unheard of following procedures in licensed facilities. The most important prevention is to be able to have access to your surgeon post-operatively so issues can be dealt with in expeditious ways and to use a board certified surgeon.

Answer: Necrotizing fasciitis This is a very rare complication of a tummy tuck. Just make sure your surgeon is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and your surgery is performed in an accredited outpatient surgery center. Good luck!
