Understanding Tummy Tuck Surgery
Despite dedicated efforts to achieve physical fitness and maintain a healthy diet, many individuals struggle with stubborn excess fat in the midsection. Pregnancy, weight fluctuations, heredity, and aging can contribute to accumulated fat and loose skin in the abdominal region.
What is a Tummy Tuck?
Tummy tuck surgery, medically known as abdominoplasty, is a transformative procedure that contours and removes excess skin while restoring weak, separated abdominal muscles. Dr. Eliopoulos offers two primary types of tummy tuck surgeries tailored to individual patient needs.
Complete Abdominoplasty (Full Tummy Tuck)
A comprehensive procedure providing tightening of both upper and lower abdomen. During this surgery, Dr. Eliopoulos makes strategic incisions to remove excess skin and fat while reconstructing underlying muscle structure.
Partial Abdominoplasty (Mini Tummy Tuck)
Ideal for patients with minimal lower abdominal concerns, this procedure involves a shorter incision and focuses on removing excess tissue below the navel without repositioning the belly button.
Benefits of Tummy Tuck Surgery
- Removes excess skin and stretch marks
- Refines abdominal contours after weight loss
- Tightens weakened abdominal muscles
- Provides a smoother silhouette
- Enhances physical comfort and self-confidence
Recovery and Aftercare
Dr. Eliopoulos provides comprehensive post-surgical guidance to ensure optimal healing. Patients can typically return to work within 1-2 weeks and should limit physical activities for approximately six weeks following the procedure.
Candidacy and Consultation
Ideal tummy tuck candidates are near their target weight, in good physical health, and possess realistic expectations. A personalized consultation with Dr. Eliopoulos will determine the most appropriate surgical approach.
