Tummy Tuck
What is a Tummy Tuck?

A tummy tuck, also known as an abdominoplasty, is a surgical procedure that reduces excess fat and skin from the waist, and in most cases restores weakened or separated muscles creating an abdominal profile that is more smooth and firm.

How is a Tummy Tuck Performed?

During your tummy tuck procedure, a cosmetic surgeon will make an incision that typically goes from hip to hip. The entire abdominal skin flap is lifted, and the underlying muscles will be tightened. The skin will then be pulled down and re-draped to maximize the amount of skin removed. Once complete, you’ll be left with a flatter belly and more defined waist. The best candidates are nonsmokers who are physically healthy and at a stable weight.  We do have a max BMI requirement of 34.

What Are The Typical Results?
Although the results of an abdominoplasty procedure are technically permanent, the positive outcome can be greatly diminished by significant fluctuations in your weight. For this reason, individuals who are planning substantial weight loss or women who may be considering future pregnancies may be advised to postpone this procedure.
 
It’s also important to remember that tummy tuck surgery is not a substitute for weight loss or an appropriate exercise program for a flat tummy. Also, tummy tuck operations cannot correct stretch marks, although these may be removed or somewhat improved if they are located on the areas of excess skin that will be excised, generally the treated areas below the belly button.
Post-Operative Recovery

Tummy tuck recovery is an important time when the surgery site must heal. The time it takes to recover varies based on several factors, including the extent of the surgery and the age of the patient. Generally, patients should plan on about two weeks of down time for normal activities. To help speed this process up, be sure to follow all instructions.

Can't say enough about Dr. Marvel and his amazing staff. He has done several procedures on me, and they are perfection. I have not had to take any pain pills, I didn't even bruise with my procedures. He is also extremely honest, if he doesn't think you need something done he will tell you that, which is unheard of these days. I highly recommend him
