The Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty) Procedure
One of the most popular cosmetic procedures is abdominoplasty, also called a tummy tuck. Abdominoplasty removes excess abdominal skin and fat, tightening, contouring and flattening the abdomen for a more attractive and physically fit appearance. The abdominoplasty procedure incorporates three components: removal of excess skin, liposuction of the abdomen, flanks and waist, and tightening of the abdominal muscle which has been stretched as a result of pregnancy in most cases.
Our surgeon has made advances in the abdominoplasty procedure to make the procedure as comfortable as possible. Prior to tightening the abdominal muscles, our surgeon injects a long acting local anaesthetic called Exparel® into the tissues covering the muscles. This provides extended pain relief for up to 3 or 4 days, and cuts down the need for stronger pain medications.
When a tummy tuck is combined with a breast augmentation or lift, this is know as the Mommy makeover procedure.
Your consultation with our surgeon is your best opportunity to find out all you can about the abdominoplasty procedure, your recovery and how abdominoplasty can change your life.

Reasons to Seek a Tummy Tuck

- Excess skin in the mid-to-lower abdomen
- Large fatty deposits in the lower abdomen

- Chronic skin rashes
Excess abdominal fat and skin can be unresponsive to diet and exercise and can result from:

Your Tummy Tuck Consultation
During your private consultation, our surgeon will:
- Evaluate your health, lifestyle and desired outcome
- Take photographs for your medical records
- Talk about your options
- Discuss any risks of your procedure
Choosing a board-certified plastic surgeon is one of the best decisions you can make. He has many years of additional training and experience, so you can feel confident of the outcome of your procedure and your long-term results.
The tummy tuck procedure is not a weight loss strategy or a suitable substitute for an appropriate exercise program. Although tummy tuck results are long-lasting, significant weight fluctuations can stretch skin and add excess fat to other areas, thus undoing your beautiful new figure.
