Tummy Tuck | Common Questions

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.
