TUMMY TUCK MUNSTER, IN | PETRUNGARO PLASTIC SURGERY

UNDERSTANDING TUMMY TUCK SURGERY

Weight loss, aging, pregnancy, and significant body changes can
negatively impact abdominal appearance. For many patients, loose skin,
excess fat, and stretched abdominal muscles cannot self-correct. A
surgical tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, offers a comprehensive
solution to restore a flat, refined abdominal profile.

PROCEDURE OVERVIEW

Tummy tuck surgery is a powerful procedure that surgically removes
excess skin and fat while repairing underlying stretched abdominal
muscles. The process includes:

 	* Surgical removal of loose and damaged skin
	* Muscle repair and tightening
	* Repositioning of the belly button for optimal aesthetic results
	* Optional liposuction to enhance body contouring

IDEAL CANDIDATES FOR TUMMY TUCK

Candidates for tummy tuck surgery typically include individuals who:

 	* Are in good overall health
	* Are at or near their ideal body weight
	* Have completed childbearing
	* Maintain stable weight
	* Have realistic expectations about surgical outcomes

SURGICAL PROCEDURE DETAILS

Dr. Jason Petrungaro performs tummy tuck surgery under general
anesthesia, typically taking approximately 3 hours. The procedure
involves strategic incision placement to minimize visible scarring,
usually concealed beneath the bikini line.

SURGICAL TECHNIQUES

During the procedure, Dr. Petrungaro will:

 	* Create precise surgical markings
	* Perform comprehensive liposuction
	* Lift and remove excess skin and fat
	* Repair stretched abdominal muscles
	* Reposition the belly button

RECOVERY AND RESULTS

Full recovery from a tummy tuck typically takes about 6 weeks.
Patients can expect immediate changes in their abdominal profile, with
continued improvement as swelling decreases. Wearing a compression
garment and following post-operative instructions are crucial for
optimal healing.

Maintaining results requires adopting a healthy lifestyle with
balanced nutrition and regular exercise. Dr. Petrungaro emphasizes the
importance of sustainable habits to preserve surgical outcomes.
