Tummy Tuck
Am I a Good Candidate for a Tummy Tuck?
You may be a great candidate for a tummy tuck if you are in good physical health, are close to your ideal body weight, and are bothered by one or more of the following:
- Excess skin in the abdominal area
- Stubborn pockets of abdominal fat
- Back pain and/or poor posture from the weight of loose, hanging abdominal skin
- Low self-esteem due to unflattering midsection contours
- Weak and/or separated abdominal muscles
What Is a Tummy Tuck?
Also referred to by the medical term, abdominoplasty, tummy tuck surgery is utilized to flatten and tighten a patient’s midsection. This cosmetic surgery is intended to remove excess skin and small amounts of unwanted fat in the abdominal area.
Your Tummy Tuck Consultation
The first step of the tummy tuck treatment process is a consultation with Dr. Jacobson. During your consultation, he will want to discuss your aesthetic and functional concerns, medical history, and expectations for the procedure’s outcome, so he can determine if an abdominoplasty is advisable for you.
What to Expect During Tummy Tuck Surgery
For your comfort, anesthesia is necessary at the start of this procedure. Dr. Jacobson can then make the appropriate abdominoplasty incision for your unique anatomy and treatment goals.
What to Expect After Tummy Tuck Surgery
You may be asked to wear a compression garment for several weeks to reduce swelling and support your realigned skin as it heals. Small drainage tubes may be placed temporarily at the incision site to prevent fluid buildup.
How Much Does a Tummy Tuck Cost?
The cost of a tummy tuck is based on the complexity of a patient’s customized surgical plan. The price of your abdominoplasty will be determined and reviewed with you during your consultation.
