Abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck) Allentown, PA | Dr. Badar U. Jan, MD

Understanding Tummy Tuck Surgery

Weight loss and body changes can result in excess skin that impacts self-confidence. A tummy tuck procedure offers a transformative solution for individuals seeking a smoother, more toned abdominal area. Board-certified plastic surgeons specialize in restoring body contours and helping patients achieve their aesthetic goals.

Tummy Tuck Procedure Overview

Tummy tuck surgery, or abdominoplasty, is a comprehensive body contouring procedure designed to address multiple concerns simultaneously. The surgical approach involves:

• Removing excess skin and fat
• Tightening weakened abdominal muscles
• Creating a more proportional body silhouette

Surgical Techniques

Depending on individual needs, two primary tummy tuck approaches are available:

• Full Tummy Tuck: Comprehensive muscle and skin restoration above and below the navel
• Mini Tummy Tuck: Targeted fat and skin removal below the navel

Candidate Considerations

Ideal candidates for tummy tuck surgery should be relatively healthy, maintain stable weight, and not planning future pregnancies. The procedure is particularly beneficial for individuals who have experienced significant weight loss, multiple pregnancies, or age-related body changes.

Surgical Process

The tummy tuck procedure involves strategic incisions designed to minimize visible scarring. Surgeons carefully lift skin and fat, suture underlying muscles, and redrape tissues to create a smoother, more refined abdominal contour. The procedure is typically performed under general anesthesia with meticulous attention to patient safety and aesthetic outcomes.
