The Power of Transformation

What is a Abdominoplasty?

Abdominoplasty, commonly known as a “tummy tuck,” is a transformative procedure that targets the abdominal area.

It eliminates excess skin and fat and repairs weakened or separated abdominal muscles, providing a flatter, firmer, and more aesthetically pleasing abdomen. Ideal candidates are those who, despite healthy lifestyle habits, struggle with a protruding abdomen due to weight loss, aging, heredity, pregnancy, or prior surgery.

Abdominoplasty Frequently Asked Questions

Ideal candidates for abdominoplasty are individuals who are in good overall health but are struggling with excess skin and fat in the abdomen that doesn't respond to diet and exercise. It's also beneficial for those who have weakened or separated abdominal muscles due to factors like pregnancy, aging, or significant weight fluctuations.

While you will notice an immediate change in your abdomen post-procedure, final results typically take several months to appear. This allows for all post-procedure swelling to subside and for the skin and tissues to adapt to their new contours. Remember, maintaining a healthy lifestyle plays a crucial role in sustaining the results of your abdominoplasty.

While uncommon, every surgical procedure carries a certain degree of risk. Potential complications following a tummy tuck might include infection, blood clots, or challenges with healing that may necessitate additional procedures. Patients with prior abdominal surgery should be aware that existing scars could become raised, elongated, or more visible following the abdominoplasty. Subsequent scar revision procedures can be considered to help reduce the visibility of any prominent scarring.
