Specifically *not* for cosmetic purposes. Mrs Elspode had been chronically hypertensive for five years. She now has a resting BP of 120 over 68 and now takes no medications. When she was a teenager, her father gave her a beating severe enough to have dislocated a vertebrae in her lower back. This caused her extreme pain and radiating numbness down her leg. Gone. No more shortness of breath, dizzy spells, or headaches of mysterious origin and interminable duration.

We are currently documenting photographically and with copious notes any problems which occur in the areas of excess skin. If you can document a medical need for abdominoplasty, it can in fact be covered by insurance.
