FAQ about tummy tucks
Is a tummy tuck right for me? (Am I a candidate for an abdominoplasty?)
- If you are at your ideal weight, but still have loose skin on your abdomen, a tummy tuck may be right for you
- Because pregnancy stretches the abdominal muscles, ideal candidates for a tummy tuck are done with childbearing
What should I expect during the physical exam portion of my consultation?
- I will examine your abdomen thoroughly. I will check for abdominal muscle tone and skin looseness. I will also check you for a hernia in the belly button before your tummy tuck.
- I will photograph your abdomen prior to tummy tuck surgery
What are the various types of tummy tucks?
- A mini tummy tuck is for people with a small amount of loose skin below the navel. Through a bikini line incision I am able to remove excess skin without cutting around the navel
- A regular tummy tuck is for people with a bit more skin to remove. During a classic tummy tuck I cut around the navel and bring a large portion of skin down through a bikini line incision. I then make a hole and bring the belly button through.
