Description

What is a Tummy Tuck?

Understanding the Procedure

A tummy tuck, also known as abdominoplasty, is a cosmetic surgery that removes excess skin and fat from the abdomen. The procedure is popular among those who have lost a significant amount of weight, women who have had multiple pregnancies, or those who simply want to improve the appearance of their stomach area. At [Clinic Name], we offer safe and effective tummy tuck procedures to help you achieve the body you desire.

Am I a Good Candidate for a Tummy Tuck?

Before considering a tummy tuck, it’s important to understand if you’re a good candidate for the procedure. Generally, candidates should be in good health, have realistic expectations, and be at a stable weight. During your consultation at Finer You, our experienced surgeons will evaluate your health history and goals to determine if a belly tuck is right for you.

The Tummy Tuck Procedure

The tummy tuck procedure typically takes between two to three hours and is performed under general anesthesia. During the procedure, your surgeon will make a horizontal incision between your hips, just above your pubic area. The length of the incision will depend on the amount of skin and fat to be removed. Your surgeon will then separate the skin from the abdominal muscles, and tighten the muscles to create a smoother, flatter abdomen. Any excess skin and fat will be removed, and the remaining skin will be pulled tight and sutured together.

Recovery and Results

After the tummy tuck procedure, you can expect some discomfort and swelling. You will need to wear a compression garment for several weeks to help minimize swelling and support your abdomen as it heals. Most patients are able to return to work within two weeks, and resume normal activities within four to six weeks. The results of your tummy tuck will be visible immediately, and will continue to improve over the next several months as swelling subsides and your incision heals.
