I am considering a tummy tuck but I am worried about scarring. What do you think?
Your tummy tuck procedure will leave a scar. However, it will run from hipbone to hipbone just above the pubic area but below the panty line. An incision is also made around the navel so it can be repositioned to a more natural look.
How do I know if I am a good candidate for an abdominoplasty?
The ideal candidates for abdominoplasty surgery are men and women who are in good physical shape, but have stubborn fat deposits around their stomach that will not respond to diet and exercise. A tummy tuck is also a good solution for women who have had multiple pregnancies and don’t plan to have any more children.
How long do the results of an abdominoplasty last?
Your abdominoplasty procedure will last for several years if you stay in good shape. Typically, the results will last longer if you exercise and eat a healthy diet. Patients who gain a great deal of weight or become pregnant may require another tummy tuck in the future.
