Tummy Tuck

Tameka Raymond came close to death during her plastic surgery scare last week. In an interview with VladTV, Usher’s ex-wife reveals she traveled to Brazil for her liposuction procedure and suffered a cardiac arrest while under anesthesia.

A rep for Sao Paulo, Brazil plastic surgeon Silvio Sterman says Raymond was revived in less than a minute using heart massage. She spent 11 days in the hospital at Hospital Sirio Libanes, one of the best in the country.

A tummy tuck can address loose skin on the abdomen and pubic area, but it is also a good option for women who have lost a large amount of weight. Patients should be non-smokers or willing to quit smoking for six weeks before and after the operation. The procedure is most appropriate for those who do not plan on having more children and have fully recovered from childbirth. Some patients may benefit from a drain-free tummy tuck, which tightens the lower abdominal tissues without requiring the use of surgical drains.
