Tummy Tuck After Weight Loss or Pregnancy

A tummy tuck, also known as an Abdominoplasty, is the surgical procedure that removes excess fat, skin, stretch marks and restores the abdominal wall to create a flatter and firmer abdomen. Our tummy tuck approach is unique as it involves a combination of the following techniques to maximize results, reduce risks and optimize healing time:

• Suprapubic incision (directly above the pubis) a well-hidden scar which can be covered by a standard bikini or low cut jeans.
• Repair of Abdominal Muscle to reduce abdominal separation (diastasis rectus) and weak abdominal muscles (all mommy makeovers get this procedures)
• Progressive Tension Suture minimizes post-operative care and significantly reduces complications. This procedure also allows the surgeon to remove more skin and give patients better abdominal contour.
• Natural Belly Button Technique: by stitching down the skin under the new belly button more tightly our doctors are able to create a sensual-looking belly button, perfect for low-cut jeans.
• Absorbable sutures: these type of stitches allows patients to travel back home much sooner. The sutures are non-toxic and hypoallergenic to avoid adverse reactions in the body.
• Safe Recovery: we use anticoagulants like Clexane to prevent and treat deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism, we also monitor the patients oxygen saturation post surgery to ensure adequate healing.
• Incentive Spirometer: a medical device used to help patients improve the functioning of their lungs. This is frequently used after an extended time under anesthesia and prolonged in-bed recovery.
