Restore confidence in your core. Our abdominoplasty procedures are designed to remove redundant skin, repair weakened abdominal muscles, and create a smoother, firmer abdominal profile after pregnancy or weight loss.
While liposuction targets fat, a Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty) addresses the structural components of the abdominal wall. It is the gold-standard procedure for individuals who have significant skin laxity (loose skin) or "diastasis recti" (separation of the abdominal muscles) caused by pregnancy or major weight fluctuations.
At DermaTales, we perform customized abdominoplasty that focuses on creating a natural-looking belly button, a low-positioned scar that is easily hidden by undergarments, and a significantly tighter, more contoured midsection.
Treats the entire abdominal area. Includes skin removal from above the navel to the pubic area, muscle repair, and repositioning of the belly button.
Focuses only on the lower abdomen (below the navel). Ideal for patients with mild skin laxity and no muscle separation. Navel repositioning is usually not required.
Extends the excision to the flanks (love handles), addressing loose skin that continues around the sides of the waist after massive weight loss.
A combination of liposuction (to remove stubborn fat) and surgical excision (to remove skin) for the most dramatic 3D contouring of the waist.
You will need to walk slightly hunched to avoid tension on the incision. Compression garments are essential to manage swelling.
Most patients can return to non-strenuous office work. You will begin to stand straighter as the tissue heals.
Core exercises and heavy lifting can usually be resumed after 6–8 weeks. Scars begin to mature and fade.
