A tummy tuck is also called a full abdominoplasty. It’s a cosmetic procedure that has grown significantly in popularity around the world over the past decade. It is a common surgery performed by plastic surgeons today. The demand for this surgery has grown due to our increased focus on fitness and health, as well as its dramatic and realistic results.
At Flores Plastic Surgery in Miami, FL, we perform this surgery to remove extra stretched, sagging skin and tighten muscles on the abdomen. Our plastic surgeons have advanced surgical skills and enough experience to carry out the procedure with success and satisfaction. Most people are interested in learning about a tummy tuck and how they can benefit from one. Here are the top 4 questions patients ask about this surgery.
What Is A Tummy Tuck?
It’s a surgical procedure performed to flatten the abdomen by removing excess fat and large excision of skin. Age, weight loss, and pregnancy are significant factors that can lead to excess fat and skin on the abdomen. The operation is carried out under the influence of general anesthesia. It is also beneficial in tightening the abdominal muscles.
Am I A Candidate?
The perfect candidate for a tummy tuck is someone in good health. The patient must have a stable weight, with realistic expectations about the outcome of this treatment. You’re an ideal candidate if you’re bothered droopy skin around your abdomen or have excess stomach fat that has not responded to exercise and diet.
The surgery is perfect for both men and women alike. However, you should not consider this to be a substitute for regular exercise and a healthy diet. This surgery is not suitable for women who are planning to become pregnant; pregnancy will compromise the surgical results.
What Results Can I Expect?
The result is a flatter, firmer abdominal contour. The results are dramatic, and you can notice the difference immediately after surgery. Supposing you had sagging or hanging folds around your abdomen, they will not be present after the procedure. The results will gradually improve too as the swelling subsides over the next few days. An added advantage is that the procedure can remove stretch marks on your surrounding skin.
The results of a tummy tuck are permanent. To enjoy the long-term effects of this surgery, you must maintain a healthy lifestyle. Be sure to partake in regular exercises and maintain a healthy diet. If you keep a stable weight and have no further pregnancies, the results can last for many, many years.

I wish I had met him before.All the stars for Dr Flores and his excellent team.My endlessly gratitude for this exceptional Doctor and marvelous human being.
Couldn't be HAPPIER - LOWER BODY LIFT AND BREAST LIFT W/O IMPLANTS
by BARBARA M.
Category: reviewsI was referred to Dr. Flores by another plastic surgeon who is amazing. However, he was honest enough to say that what I needed was best being done by Dr. Flores as he was the best in what I needed. I thought what I needed what a tummy tuck and in fact he told me I needed a lower body lift. Therefore, I went ahead scheduled the appointment and the day of my appointment I was a little concerned as I had never met. I finally met him and his staff and let me tell you he's AMAZING!!! Answers all your concerns with such patience and shows so much caring! I didn't hesitate to schedule my surgery. Results could not be any better and would not hesitate to refer him to my friends as he's truly an artist. His office team are great! If I could give me 100 STARS i would not hesitate.
Forever grateful to Dr Flores and his amazing staff!

Category: reviewsThere are not enough stars on this review for me to show my appreciation for Dr. Flores and his amazing staff! I have been his patient since 2014, when I was first diagnosed with breast cancer. He is an amazing person, and the best plastic surgeon! After having my double mastectomy, Dr. Flores did an amazing job with my reconstruction. After having a recurrence with cancer, he has been by my side every step of the way, and making sure all my needs were met. I am beyond happy with my breast reconstruction and hands down can say that Dr Flores and his wonderful staff have been a beacon of hope for me. He is by far the BEST plastic surgeon in Miami, and I will recommend him and his practice hands down every time !! Thank you for all you have down for me, I am forever grateful!
