The patient, in her early 30s, consulted for a tummy tuck procedure due to concerns about loose skin and muscle separation following two cesarean sections. She expressed a desire to regain her confidence and return to running, as the appearance of her abdomen was affecting her self-esteem.

Seven months post-surgery, the patient achieved an amazing result and reported high satisfaction with the outcome despite finding the recovery more challenging than anticipated. During the follow-up examination, the results demonstrated significant improvement, with healing progressing nicely. The patient was thrilled with the enhancements made to her abdominal appearance, reflecting her commitment to her personal goals.
