In need of some help

I am a 42yr old woman. I live in Columbia South Carlina and this is my first time looking for a surgeon because i have extra skin from my stomach that i want to have removed. I have tried the gym, tried dieting as well. What is the first thing i need to look at when choosing a surgeon for the first time? At times I have problems with looking in the mirror. I do hope to hear back from someone soon

Procedure: Tummy Tuck
Location: Columbia, SC

Hi, excess skin and muscle relaxation can be treated with surgery but a careful examination is required to assess if you are a right candidate for such procedure

Consult a surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. There are several in your area.
