This patient, a woman in her late 50s, sought a tummy tuck in Savannah to address excess skin and weakened abdominal muscles. Visible bulging from diastasis recti—a common separation of the abdominal wall—created concerns about her midsection’s contour, even with healthy lifestyle habits.

Barbara Davies, MD, performed an abdominoplasty with diastasis repair under general anesthesia. The procedure involved removing excess skin and tightening the underlying muscles. At three months after her tummy tuck, the patient achieved a flatter, firmer abdomen and improved waistline definition. Most activities resumed within several weeks, with full healing expected as swelling continued to subside.

Dr. Davies is board certified and brings extensive experience to every tummy tuck in Savannah. She focuses on individualized care and clear communication at every stage of the patient process.
