With pregnancy, the layers of the abdominal wall are stretched. Following child birth the layers do not go back into the same position and the abdominal wall is often weakened. The muscles that once sat together in the midline are often split apart and this leads to the formation of a gap. There is often excess skin. Mr Ross uses a number of layers of repair to strengthen the abdominal wall and then removes the excess skin. This lady opted to have a breast augmentation at the same time as an abdominoplasty and the results are seen at 3 months when the swelling has settled.
