Abdominoplasty

Yes! Viewing actual results can help you understand what kind of transformation is possible and feel more confident in your decision. We have helped thousands of patients with visible, natural-looking results. You can check out our before-and-after cases here.

• Expertise: Our surgeons specialize in various types of abdominoplasty, tailoring the procedure to your specific needs.
• Advanced Techniques: We combine abdominoplasty with liposuction or hernia repairs when necessary, ensuring comprehensive results.
• Aftercare Support: We provide detailed post-operative instructions, follow-up care, and support for a smooth recovery.
• Minimized Scarring: Our techniques are designed to ensure scars are hidden within natural creases and fade significantly over time.

You may be a good candidate if you:

• Are bothered by sagging skin or deformities in the abdominal area.
• Have excess skin and fat due to pregnancy, weight gain/loss, or aging.
• Are in good health and at a stable weight.
• Do not smoke or are willing to quit before and after the procedure.

• Quit Smoking: Stop smoking several weeks before surgery, as smoking affects blood flow and delays healing.
• Weight Stabilization: Maintain a stable weight; significant weight loss or gain post-surgery can impact results.
• Avoid Certain Medications: Discontinue aspirin and anti-inflammatory drugs as they can increase bleeding.
• Pre-Surgical Consultation: Your doctor will review your medical history, perform a physical examination, and provide specific instructions tailored to your needs.

• Infection: Treated with antibiotics if detected.
• Blood Clots: Risk minimized with proper post-operative care, such as movement and compression garments.
• Scarring: Although scars are inevitable, they fade significantly over time.
• Fluid Accumulation: Drainage may be required if body fluids collect under the skin.

1. Consultation and Custom Plan Creation: The surgeon discusses your goals, reviews your medical history, and determines the best technique for your needs.

2. Anesthesia Administration: General anesthesia is used to ensure a pain-free experience.

3. Incision and Skin Removal:

• For a traditional tummy tuck, a horizontal incision is made above the pubic area to remove excess skin and fat.
• For a mini tummy tuck, a smaller incision focuses on the lower abdomen.
• For an extended tummy tuck, the incision extends around the flanks to address excess skin on the sides.

4. Muscle Tightening: The abdominal muscles are tightened to restore a firmer appearance.

5. Liposuction (Optional): May be performed to contour the waist and sides.

6. Closure and Dressing: The incision is carefully closed, and a compression garment is applied to reduce swelling and support healing.

• Traditional Abdominoplasty: Best for individuals with significant excess skin and fat.
• Mini Abdominoplasty: Suitable for those with minor sagging limited to the lower abdomen.
• Extended Abdominoplasty: Ideal for patients with excess skin around the flanks or after massive weight loss.

Your surgeon will recommend the best option during your consultation.

• Traditional or Extended Tummy Tuck: 2–4 hours.
• Mini Tummy Tuck: 1–2 hours.

• The incision is strategically placed within the bikini line, ensuring scars are well-hidden.
• Scars may be pink initially but fade into thin, white lines over time with proper care.
• Post-surgical scar care, including creams and silicone sheets, can help minimize their appearance.

Yes, tummy tucks can be combined with:

• Liposuction: To contour the waist and flanks.
• Hernia Repair: Addresses functional and aesthetic concerns.
• Breast Surgery: For a full-body transformation.

• Stretch marks on the lower abdomen are typically removed along with excess skin.
• Loose skin is tightened, and the abdominal muscles are firmed for a smoother appearance.
