Patient was seen by Armen Vartany, M.D. in his Burbank, CA office. Patient complained of excess fat located slightly above her belly button, and a "pooch" on her lower abdomen. Dr. Armen Vartany performed a mini-tummy tuck, also known as a modified abdominoplasty, along with liposuction. The loose skin below the belly button was pulled down and excised which eliminated the "pooch" and created a smooth and flat stomach.
