This beautiful African American woman from Groveport, Ohio wanted to remove excess fat and skin from her abdomen and reclaim her body. She was referred by a friend to top surgeon Dr. Bivik Shah at The Columbus Institute of Plastic Surgery. He did just that, and also repaired her weakened abdominal muscles, creating a firmer profile. She loves her new tighter, firmer mid-section. She is photographed here before and only 4 months following her abdominoplasty (tummy-tuck).
