Umbilical hernia repair performed with Mommy Makeover in Raleigh
This 36 year old mother of 4 children lost volume in her breasts and developed an umbilical hernia and abdominal laxity after her pregnancies. She originally thought she need a full tummy tuck but had very minimal skin laxity of her abdomen. She elected to have a breast augmentation with gel implants as well as a mini abdominoplasty with umbilical hernia repair. In this approach, the hernia is addressed from a low scar ( where a C section scar is located) with no scarring around the belly button. A small amount of excess skin is removed from her lower abdomen to tighten it but not a full tummy tuck. She had Allergan SRF 365 cc gel implants and went from a small B to a full C cup. Mommy makeovers usually involve procedures on the breast and abdomen . This case demonstrates that there is no such thing as a standard Mommy Makeover- each patient is individualized.
Dr. Lyle offers a wide range of Tummy Tuck surgery options depending on your anatomy, excess skin and desired outcomes. The procedure could be combined with other procedures and may also remove unsightly stretch marks or past scars from c-section or hysterectomy.
