Abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck) in Golden, CO | Dr. Steven Vath

What is a Tummy Tuck?

Tummy tuck surgery, or abdominoplasty, is a transformative procedure that removes loose, sagging skin and excess fat while restoring weakened or separated abdominal muscles. The result is a flatter, firmer abdomen and more contoured waistline.

Advanced Surgical Techniques

The Center for Cosmetic Surgery offers top-tier, personalized tummy tuck procedures. Their surgeons are renowned for advanced abdominoplasty techniques and exceptional patient outcomes.

Key Procedure Highlights

• 2-3 hour surgical procedure
• Approximately 1-2 weeks recovery before returning to work
• First practice in Colorado to adopt no-drain approach
• Advanced techniques minimizing scarring and recovery time

Tummy Tuck Candidacy

Ideal candidates for abdominoplasty typically have:

• Excess abdominal skin and fat
• Weakened or separated abdominal muscles
• Stable body weight
• Maintained healthy lifestyle

Procedure Overview

During a tummy tuck, surgeons make a horizontal incision along the lower abdomen. Excess skin is removed, abdominal muscles are tightened, and the remaining skin is repositioned for a smoother, more contoured appearance.

No-Drain Tummy Tuck Advantage

The Center for Cosmetic Surgery specializes in a drainless tummy tuck technique that offers multiple benefits, including increased patient comfort, reduced infection risk, and improved healing.

Recovery and Results

Recovery varies by individual, but most patients can return to work within 1-2 weeks. Full results become apparent as swelling subsides, typically within 3-6 months post-surgery.

Complementary Procedures

Many patients combine tummy tuck with complementary procedures like liposuction or breast enhancement as part of a comprehensive body contouring strategy.
