I perform a "NO DRAINS" tummy tuck which means tha I perform a "NO DRAINS" tummy tuck which means that the patient can go home without needing to worry about the discomfort of when their drains are removed.

Some surgeons prefer using drains to drain the fluid which collects in the "dead space" after a tummy tuck; the drains need to stay in for several days to be effective. Other surgeons may use a type of internal tissue glue.

46 year old woman.  After two pregnancies left h 46 year old woman. 

After two pregnancies left her with split rectus muscles, she suffered with lower backache and poor posture. Split tummy muscles can also be a cause of constipation.
Before her operation, you can see her back is arched, as a result of the split muscles. Three months after her operation you can see that her back is already less arched.
She lost 8 kg to get her BMI from 30 down to 27 to prepare for her operation. Being healthy for surgery contributes to a good recovery.

The operation removed 945g of skin and fat and repaired the 6cm wide muscle split. Following her operation she noticed that her lower back ache was much improved and bowel habits became “very efficient”.
No sign of “dogears” (nubbins of skin/bulges at each end of the scar), nor love handles.

The scar is managed with 2inch Micropore® surgical tape, which she will apply for at least 6 months. If the scar looks this good at three months it will continue to improve. Please note this is NOT THE FINAL RESULT as there is still residual swelling which takes 6 months to subside. Keep an eye on our feed for a later result coming soon.

This is a question which patients commonly ask me. This is a question which patients commonly ask me. It goes without saying that the single most important factor to healing well is to not smoke! 

Something that all patients can do in the early stages after surgery it to use is Mircopore® surgical tape. This avoids the need for far more expensive, troublesome and sometimes painful management of bad scarring (e.g silicone, massage, compression and cortisone injections).

This 49 year old patient with a BMI of 27, had two This 49 year old patient with a BMI of 27, had two pregnancies which resulted in split muscles with a 6 cm gap. She struggled with lower backache and low self-confidence. Her tethered Cesarean scar and overhanging stomach ledge did not improve no matter the exercise she did nor the weight she lost. 

The surgery repaired her 6 cm split and excised 1113 grams of excess tissue. Three months after surgery she noticed that her stress incontinence had improved as well as her lower backache, this can happen once the internal organs are better supported by the abdominal muscles.

With a strengthened core she was able to get more out of her exercise and can now lift heavy objects which she was unable to do before. She also noticed that she had less bloating and her appetite had decreased as a result of the muscle repair.

While a tummy tuck can improved one appearance and boost self confidence it is primarily a functional operation! The ability to exercise properly and relieve back ache are some of the many benefits which patients feel after undergoing tummy tuck surgery. Achieving an hourglass figure was just the icing on the cake for this patient!

This woman was 40 years old at the time of her abd This woman was 40 years old at the time of her abdominoplasty surgery. For such a small and slim woman, with a height of only 5’1” and weighing 8 stone (BMI 22), and a very tall husband over 6 foot, her three pregnancies were difficult as her babies were very large.

She had been diagnosed by her GP with split muscles 3 years prior to her surgery, however she still did not qualify for NHS funding. She had suffered with constipation and lower backache for years as a result of her split rectus muscles. She was unable to close the muscle split with years of physiotherapy and regular exercise.
 
Her surgery removed a mere 226g of tissue and repaired the wide 5-6cm muscle split. Three months after surgery the patients felt relief in her backache, no longer experienced stress incontinence and had significantly improved self confidence. 

After having had large babies and multiple pelvic prolapse operations, the patient reported that the tummy tuck resolved the long-standing dragging feeling she had felt in her pelvis!

This 47 year old lady is 4’10” tall and her we This 47 year old lady is 4’10” tall and her weight was 7 stone 12 pounds when she had her breast reduction.

She wore a 28H cup bra and felt that her breasts had been the bane of her life. The weight of her breasts caused her bra straps to rub and dig into her shoulders, causing her shoulder ache and back ache. While she loves sport and even ran a marathon last year she struggled with her bra band chafing underneath her big breasts (see red marks in before pictures). After menopause and a little weight gain she decided to finally do something about it.

She disliked unwanted attention and found that she had to dress carefully and avoid low cleavage as her short height made it easy to look down it! 

Surgery removed 402g from her left breast and 540g from her right breast (this volume in such a small woman is a strikingly large amount). After surgery she was able to sit down and cross her arms, no longer feeling as if her breasts were resting on her lap.

Now with her new 32D cup breasts she is able to explore high impact exercises that she was unable to do prior to surgery.

She says her breasts are better than they have even been and feels  that she looks like a 20 year old again!

This 46 year old patient had struggled with her br This 46 year old patient had struggled with her breast asymmetry since her teens. It affected what she was able to wear but also presented her with lots of pain in her right shoulder (side of the bigger breast).
Prior to surgery this patient wore a 36E bra, although it was difficult to find a good fit given her asymmetry. Surgery removed 500g from the right breast and 267g from the left breast. Her nipples were elevated 8cm and 5.5cm respectively.
After surgery this patient now has symmetric breasts, she has no more pain in her right shoulder, her C cup bra fits her correctly and she finds wearing clothes a lot more comfortable. Moreover her breasts look pert and youthful. 
Her breast reduction also gave her the motivation to continue losing more weight. 
In these photos  at 14 months after her breast reduction a big improvement in her posture is noticeable.
