Abdominoplasty – Tummy Tuck
Tummy Tuck Surgery – Abdominoplasty Surgery
The Tummy Tuck Surgery is a cosmetic body procedure that we provide at Aestheticon® – International Center of Plastic Surgery, Aesthetic Treatments & Hand Surgery.
Abdominoplasty: What is A Tummy Tuck?
Have you ever looked in the mirror and wished that your stomach was flat and toned? An abdominoplasty, commonly called a tummy tuck, may be the answer. Abdominoplasty is a type of plastic surgery that provides the abdomen a fresh, toned and flat shape by removing and tightening of excess skin and removing of fat tissue.
After a tummy tuck performed by Aestheticon®’s world-class plastic surgeons, patients notice their stomach area is flatter and more defined. Their abdomen is more proportionate to the rest of their body and weight. A tummy tuck will help you feel better about your body as you notice a firmer, more pleasing contour and shape.
Who Can Benefit From a Tummy Tuck?
Anyone looking to tighten his or her stomach area can benefit from a tummy tuck. Our clients consider a tummy tuck for many reasons, among which the most common are:
- Massive Weight Loss: After an extensive weight loss, some parts of the body are left with loose, hanging skin that, even with a comprehensive exercise plan, will not go away. The abdomen is one of the most common areas that experiences loose hanging skin after extensive weight loss and a tummy tuck will remove excess fat and skin after weight loss.
- Post Pregnancy: The wear and tear on the body caused by pregnancy are among the common frustrations of mothers. Following pregnancy, many women have a hard time getting their body back to its pre-pregnancy condition. Abdominoplasty can restore a woman’s body and help her look as good (if not better) than she did before she had children!
- Pain Relief: Strong abdominal muscles promote back support. When the stomach muscles stretch and become loosened, the support these muscles provide significantly decreases. Pregnancy and extreme weight loss can make the abdominal muscles weak, causing bad posture and back pain. A tummy tuck performed by Aestheticons’s surgeons, will pull together and tighten the weakened abdominal muscles, relieving pain and helping to increase support for the back.
Different Tummies – Different Procedures: How Is a Tummy Tuck Performed?
At Aestheticon® we know that no two tummies are alike. Every patient has his or her reasons for scheduling a tummy tuck. But what kind of tummy tuck do you need? Your ideal abdominoplasty techniques are determined by your underlying anatomies, the location and amount of excessive skin, and even your clothing preference. You can rest assured knowing that Aestheticon®’s plastic surgeons will evaluate your body, medical history and your personal desires to determine which surgical option is the best solution for you and your body.
- Full Abdominoplasty (Complete Abdominoplasty): A full tummy tuck requires a hip-to-hip incision below the navel and another incision around the belly button that allows for the proper repositioning of the naval after removing the excess skin in the upper tummy region. After tightening the muscles with abdominal sutures and removing the extra skin, the remaining skin is pulled down over the stomach resulting in a toned and flat abdomen.
- Mini-Abdominoplasty (Partial Abdominoplasty): When compared to a full tummy tuck, less skin and fat will be removed during a mini tummy tuck. Depending on the requirements of the patient, the belly button may be repositioned, along with the tightening of the abdominal muscle and fascia. A mini abdominoplasty requires a smaller incision just at or above the pubic region, similar to the incision for a cesarean section.
- Extended Tummy Tuck: An extended tummy tuck combines a full abdominoplasty with a lateral thigh lift. This comprehensive surgical procedure results in a flatter tummy and shapes the waist, removing the “love handles” to give you back your hourglass figure. The incision is completed horizontally over the length of the abdomen to the back of the hips.
- Circumferential Tummy Tuck (Body Lift, Belt Lipectomy): A circumferential surgery combines an extended tummy tuck and a buttocks lift and is performed in the shape of a belt traveling around the entire body. This type of surgery is an excellent solution for those individuals who have experienced massive weight loss. For more information, please visit our Body Lift information section here.
- High Lateral Tension Abdominoplasty: In addition to a vertical tightening of the abdominal muscles, a horizontal tightening of the muscles will be performed, resulting in an even more toned tummy, a washboard stomach.
