For many of my patients, a tummy tuck is a wonderful turning point in their lives, boosting their self-esteem and enabling them to have a positive body image, sometimes for the first time. Tummy tuck surgery, also known as abdominoplasty, reduces excess fat and skin and helps restore weakened or separated muscles. The result? A smoother, firmer, more attractive midsection.

However, it’s not unusual for a woman to want to get pregnant after having a tummy tuck, and often patients come to me asking of this is safe, or even possible. While it is perfectly safe to get pregnant after a tummy tuck without injuring yourself or the baby, the pregnancy will stretch the abdominal wall muscles and overlying skin, potentially reversing some of the improvements gained by the tummy tuck.

For many of us as we age, our stomach becomes loose and flabby, then starts to sag and protrude. There are many reasons for this, the most common being: heredity, pregnancy, surgery and losing a significant amount of weight. When this happens, both men and women come to me seeking ways to help reverse the “middle age bulge” that has crept up on them. My recommendation? A tummy tuck.

What is a tummy tuck?

A tummy tuck — or abdominoplasty — is a cosmetic surgery procedure that extracts loose, flabby skin, tightens stomach muscle and contours fat, transforming the midsection into a flatter, smoother abdominal surface.

Would you like a flatter, tighter, more toned tummy? Would you like to look and feel better in bathing suits and lingerie? Would you like to get your pre-pregnancy body back? If you answered yes to any (or all) of these questions, I encourage you to consider getting a tummy tuck.

Tummy tuck surgery, also known as abdominoplasty, extracts excess fat and skin from the abdomen and restores weakened or separated abdominal muscles. The result? A smoother, firmer, more attractive midsection.

For many of my patients, no matter how much they exercise regularly and watch what they eat, they inevitably carry excess weight in their midsection. For men, this tends to be around the abdomen, while for women, fat typically collects around the lower stomach, hips and thighs. Can anything be done to address a flabby, drooping stomach? Yes, a tummy tuck (also known as abdominoplasty).

How would you like a flatter tummy? And at the same time, extract fat, reduce excess skin, tighten your abdominal muscles and have a narrower waist? Like hundreds of my patients who are thrilled with their tighter, sexier, younger-looking bodies, you too can achieve all of these amazing, long-lasting benefits with a tummy tuck, also known as abdominoplasty.

Would you like a flatter, more toned, sexier tummy? Tummy tuck surgery, also known as abdominoplasty, is a great way to reduce excess fat and skin and help restore weakened or separated muscles. The result? A smoother, firmer, more attractive midsection.
