Abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck) in Princeton, NJ | Jill Hazen

Understanding Tummy Tuck Surgery

For many individuals, achieving a tight, toned abdomen represents a significant confidence milestone. While diet and exercise are essential, some situations require surgical intervention. Dr. Jill Hazen offers specialized tummy tuck procedures in Princeton, NJ to help patients achieve their desired body contours.

What is a Tummy Tuck?

A tummy tuck, medically known as abdominoplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to remove stretched or sagging abdominal skin. This technique is particularly beneficial for individuals experiencing skin laxity from pregnancy or significant weight loss.

Surgical Details of Abdominoplasty

Performed under general anesthesia, the tummy tuck procedure involves making an incision along the bikini line to strategically remove excess skin. The remaining skin is carefully repositioned to create a toned, natural appearance with minimal visible scarring.

Ideal Candidates for Tummy Tuck

Dr. Jill Hazen considers patients ideal tummy tuck candidates who meet the following criteria:

• Are close to their ideal body weight
• Have overstretched or sagging abdominal skin
• Are non-smokers in overall good health
• Understand the procedure is for body contouring, not weight loss
• Have completed their family planning

Recovery and Results

Tummy tuck recovery typically requires several weeks of careful management. Patients can expect some initial swelling and tenderness, which can be managed with prescribed medication. A compression garment is recommended for six weeks to support healing and optimize results.

Comprehensive Body Transformation
