Abdominoplasty, also called a "tummy tuck," is a major cosmetic surgical procedure designed to remove excess skin and fat from the abdomen and tighten abdominal muscles. Results of a tummy tuck can be dramatic.

The best candidates for abdominoplasty are individuals in good physical and emotional health who are frustrated with abdominal fat that does not respond to a healthy diet and regular exercise. Particularly for women, the loose skin left around the abdomen after pregnancy can be reduced or eliminated with abdominoplasty.

Abdominoplasty can boost self-esteem and improve and enhance your appearance. But there are some potential risks, including infection, blood clots and healing issues, particularly in individuals who smoke.

If you think a tummy tuck may be for you, begin by scheduling a consultation with Dr. David Broadway. During your consultation, Dr. Broadway will:

  • Evaluate your overall health
  • Assess your abdominal fat
  • Evaluate your skin tone
  • Review your medical history
  • Answer your questions

Overall, abdominoplasty produces excellent, long lasting results. If you have realistic expectations about your outcome, can accept the permanent scar from abdominoplasty and can manage a lengthy recovery period of about 4-6 weeks, the tummy tuck procedure may be the solution you've been seeking. By following a balanced diet and exercising regularly, you can enjoy your fit appearance for many years.
