Abdominoplasty in Anaheim, CA | Saba Motakef, MD
Understanding Tummy Tuck Surgery
Loose skin and unwanted abdominal fat can be challenging despite diet and exercise efforts. Significant weight loss, childbirth, and aging contribute to these concerns. A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, is a body contouring plastic surgery procedure that redefines the stomach area, achieving attractive outcomes for patients.
Ideal Tummy Tuck Candidates
- Individuals at a normal, stable weight
- Patients with loose or excess abdominal skin
- Women past childbearing years
- Individuals seeking body contouring after significant weight loss
Comprehensive Tummy Tuck Benefits
Beyond cosmetic improvements, tummy tuck surgery offers multiple health advantages, including:
- Tightening stomach muscles
- Removing excess skin
- Correcting post-surgical hernias
- Reducing stress incontinence
- Decreasing back pain
- Improving overall posture
Surgical Procedure Overview
Dr. Motakef performs abdominoplasty under general anesthesia, customizing the approach based on individual goals and physical examination. Techniques range from mini to full tummy tuck, with incisions strategically placed to minimize visible scarring.
Tummy Tuck Techniques
- Full Tummy Tuck: Comprehensive muscle and skin tightening
- Mini Tummy Tuck: Less invasive, minimal skin removal
- Extended Tummy Tuck: Addressing wider areas of skin laxity
Recovery and Results
Patients can typically resume normal activities within 3-4 weeks, with full results visible after several months. An abdominal binder helps control initial swelling, and patients are advised to follow post-operative instructions carefully.
Cost Considerations
Tummy tuck procedures generally range from $7,000 to $16,000. Costs vary based on technique, additional procedures, and individual patient needs. Motakef Plastic Surgery + Med Spa offers flexible payment options and medical financing.
