Tummy tuck
What is a tummy tuck?
Tummy tuck surgery, also known as abdominoplasty, removes excess fat and skin and, in most cases, restores weakened or separated muscles creating an abdominal profile that is smoother and firmer
Who is a good candidate for tummy tuck surgery?
In general, you may be a good tummy tuck candidate if:
- You are bothered by the appearance of your abdomen
- You are physically healthy and at a stable weight
- You have realistic expectations
- You are a nonsmoker
What should I expect during my tummy tuck recovery?
During your tummy tuck recovery, dressings or bandages may be applied to your incisions, and you may be wrapped in an elastic bandage or a compression garment to minimize swelling and support your abdomen as it heals following surgery
What results should I expect after a tummy tuck?
The final results of tummy tuck surgery may be initially obscured by swelling and your inability to stand fully upright until internal healing is complete.
