TUMMY TUCK • Losing weight, either following pregnancy or because of a lifestyle decision, is a significant achievement that requires dedication. Unfortunately, excess abdominal skin can still leave you feeling self-conscious despite exercising and eating a nutritious diet. By removing leftover excess skin and fat and tightening weakened abdominal muscles with a tummy tuck, Dr. Frederick T. Work, Jr. of the Atlanta Center for Breast and Aesthetic Surgery can restore a flatter, more youthful contour for men and women who live in and around Buckhead, Vinings, and Sandy Springs.
WHAT IS A TUMMY TUCK? • A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, is a surgical procedure that flattens the abdominal wall, sculpts the waistline and results in a streamlined, taut abdominal region. Following pregnancy or dramatic weight fluctuations, many patients develop problems with skin laxity and a weakening of the muscles that hold the belly tightly in place. The tummy tuck procedure removes excessive hanging skin and repairs and tightens loose or stretched muscle tissue. Stretch marks on the lower abdomen may be removed as part of the procedure; however, it may not be possible to remove them all. The tummy tuck procedure is done through a horizontal incision across the bikini line, just above the pubic area and, therefore, leaves a thin scar in this area. The length of the incision depends on the amount of skin to be removed. In some cases, an additional incision is made in the navel area in order to pull excess skin from above the navel downward and remove it. The position of the belly button does not change.
BENEFITS OF A TUMMY TUCK • Our tummy tuck patients should be in good health and have reached a stable weight close to their ideal weight. The tummy tuck procedure offers several benefits, including: • Removing loose, sagging, excess skin that may also contain stretch marks. • Tightening and repairing stretched or separated abdominal muscles that cause the belly to protrude. • Reducing the appearance of scars from previous surgeries, such as C-section, appendectomy or gynecological procedures.
