Tummy Tuck at
Cosmetic Surgery of Las Vegas

A tummy tuck can restore your midsection to its pre-pregnancy appearance or be the "finishing touch" on significant weight loss. Everyone admires a flat, toned abdomen but many of us cannot achieve this ideal through conventional methods of diet and exercise. This problem doesn't only affect people that are overweight; men and women of average body weight composition often experience a similar protruding tummy, which can be improved with a tummy tuck.

Reasons for Tummy Tuck Surgery

With pregnancy, this excess skin is often accompanied by stretch marks and stretched out abdominal muscles that are unlikely to return to normal with exercise alone. After weight loss, excess skin in the lower abdomen can become burdensome, particularly in clothing.

Who Should Get a Tummy Tuck?

A tummy tuck is not for everyone. For those who have good skin tone and problems areas of fat, liposuction can many times improve the appearance. Also, liposuction is many times performed along side a tummy tuck to maximize your results.

What happens during tummy tuck surgery?

With the patient under anesthesia the surgeon makes a horizontal incision just above the pubic hairline. Excess tissue, fat and skin are removed, sutures are put in place to repair any weakened abdominal muscles and the incision is closed.

Initial results are difficult to evaluate due to swelling and restricted movement, but once the recovery is complete you will see a flatter, more defined and toned abdomen. If your new shape is maintained with ongoing diet and exercise, long lasting results are possible.
