Abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck) Gallery
Houston, Texas
Abdominoplasty, or tummy tuck, removes excess skin and fat from the abdomen making it an excellent choice for those seeking a tighter, flatter stomach. Women with loose skin and stretch marks due to pregnancy or weight loss find this particularly effective. Most patients have a dramatic improvement in the appearance of their abdomen. Abdominoplasty is also performed as an outpatient procedure. Incisions are hidden below the panty line and around the naval. Recovery time for abdominoplasty varies but on average is one to two weeks.
Patients whose problem is limited to the lower abdomen may be candidates for a "mini-abdominoplasty," which involves smaller incisions and a more rapid recovery.
