For many adults, the midsection is a trouble spot where excess fat can develop. Even though diet and exercise can help patients in maintaining a more ideal body weight and fight off problems such as obesity, there are areas of the body known to hold fat cells and are more stubborn spots to treat. With surgical intervention, many men and women can find a solution to their growing midsection and improve their body contours. One of our most popular treatments is that of the tummy tuck.

What is a tummy tuck?

The tummy tuck procedure involves two parts. First, the doctor will use liposuction to remove excess fat in the area and contour the midsection into a more pleasing appearance. Second, any excess skin is removed before being sutured horizontally from hip to hip to make the scarring less noticeable when patients are wearing bathing suits or underwear. The tummy tuck procedure is the best way to target the midsection where fat accumulation tends to occur.

Why choose the tummy tuck?

Diet and exercise is a great way to achieve and maintaining better health and wellness. However, stubborn pockets of fat, such as those located in the abdominal area, are often resistant to improvement no matter how many sit-ups you perform! This is when body contouring surgeries such as the tummy tuck become necessary to help patients achieve the results they have worked hard to get. Skin laxity and fat deposits make the tummy area a difficult spot, though our team of professionals can address it with the tummy tuck procedure. Most patients find this procedure to be effective, affordable, and provide the results they desire!
