Case Study 13 Age - 40 Location - Essex  Occupation - Patient Coordinator  Procedure - Abdominoplasty "After having my children and losing weight, I was left with saggy skin that wouldn't go despite dieting and exercise - as a result I decided to have Abdominoplasty, also known at a tummy tuck." "I was told that I could expect to lose up to five inches." "The op required a one-night stay in hospital and six weeks of recuperation." "The scar took a year to fade." "Prior to the operation I hated my body and felt that no clothes ever looked good on me." "I now feel so much happier and more confident. I'll even let my husband see me naked again now!"
