40yr Old, Female, Body Lift.

A neurosurgeon recommended a tummy tuck to fix the issues I was having with my back. The problem I was suffering from was caused by an unstable core, due to separated muscles. I was referred to Dr Vucak. My experience to date, has been great. Dr Mark has a fabulous sense of humour. Surgery for me, has always been high risk. I have had several big abdominal operations, including two lots of bariatric surgery of which I have lost over 100kg. We settled on a body lift. I had a large apron hanging down onto my thighs to go with my dodgy back. I was glad Dr Vucak was willing to take a chance on fixing my muscles, even though I have yet to reach my goal weight. During surgery, Dr V removed a staggering amount of skin and fat, as well as knitting my muscles back together. The day after surgery, I stood up with the help of the amazing nurses and physiotherapists at the Townsville Pimlico hospital and felt the muscles clamp once more around my spine. Feeling that support again for the first time in years, brought tears and turned me into a blubbering mess. My first change of clothes had me giggling like a loon. My pants fell down! I no longer had my apron to hold them up! I am three weeks post body lift now, the recovery road is not a short one. It is still surreal to not have the big fold of skin at the bottom of my body and I am having a great time with clothes for the first time, ever!
Dr V is working closely with my GP and other medical specialists to keep an eye on me. When searching for someone to perform this type of huge procedure. I would not choose any other plastic surgeon to work on me. Dr Mark Vucak is the surgeon you need.
