Inland Empire Tummy Tuck
According to Robert A. Hardesty, M.D. and Della C. Bennett, M.D. - Riverside plastic surgery experts who see patients from all over the Inland Empire - tummy tuck surgery can help you achieve a flatter, trimmer stomach.
At Plastic Surgery Specialists and Services, located in the Inland Empire, liposuction is sometimes performed in conjunction with the tummy tuck, also known as abdominoplasty, to help you accomplish the best possible shape.
Is abdominoplasty right for me?
The best candidates for a tummy tuck:
- Are of a normal weight
- Have excess abdominal skin
- Have stretched stomach muscles
- Follow a healthy diet and exercise
If you are significantly overweight, then it is recommended that you lose some of the excess weight before undergoing this procedure. This procedure is no substitute for natural, healthy weight loss, and carrying extra weight may even hinder your results.
Tell me about the procedure!
Abdominoplasty is performed by removing excess abdominal skin and fat and tightening the muscle underneath. Some liposuction of the waist is also included!
The incision will be situated low enough on your abdomen that the resulting scar will be safely hidden beneath your underwear line. The procedure typically takes between two and three hours and is preformed under a general anesthesia. Your post-surgery recovery will take about two to three weeks.
