FAQs: Tummy Tuck
In Abilene, TX

What does a tummy tuck do?

A tummy tuck tightens the abdominal muscles, eliminates excess fat, removes and tightens excess skin, and smooths wrinkles. To perform a full tummy tuck, an incision is made along the lower abdomen. If your extra skin and fat are only below the belly button, we offer a mini-abdominoplasty. This procedure involves a smaller incision and shorter recovery time.

How is the tummy tuck procedure performed?

During a tummy tuck procedure, an incision is made across the lower abdomen and around the belly button. Then, the excess skin and fat is removed while realigning the abdominal muscles that have been stretched from pregnancy or weight gain. The skin from the upper abdomen is pulled tight and closed along the incision across the lower abdomen. Scars can be concealed beneath underwear and bathing suit bottoms.

Is there downtime associated with a tummy tuck in Abilene, TX?

A compression garment is required for two to six weeks following surgery. Tummy tuck patients are usually able to resume light activity after two weeks, and are able to return to work in three to four weeks. Strenuous activity can usually be resumed after about six weeks. This will vary from patient to patient.

Will my results be permanent?

Typically, results are long-lasting. However, if a significant amount of weight is gained or lost following the procedure, patients may experience loose abdominal skin again.
