Flatten & Tone Your Abdomen With A Tummy Tuck

When abdominal skin goes beyond the point of being able to stretch and return back to its original shape and firmness, a tummy tuck Arizona may be the perfect solution. A tummy tuck, also known as abdominoplasty, removes extra skin and fat from the abdomen, tightening over stretched muscles, helping the shape of the belly return to a neutral position.

The tummy tuck Arizona patients are looking for may be necessary for several reasons, including wanting to correct overstretched skin and muscles that developed after childbearing, or substantial weight loss. While in mild cases exercise can effectively tone muscles, no amount of exercise is capable of tightening overstretched abdominal muscles or loose skin.

Are You A Good Candidate For A Tummy Tuck?

Sometimes after pregnancy, or after significant weight loss, the two rectus abdominus muscles that run vertically on either side of the center of the abdomen can become severely stretched out-a condition called diastasis. In diastasis, the rectus muscles are separated due to the stretching of the sheath, or fascia, and are unable to regain their former tautness.

If you're presently experiencing diastasis, you're a candidate for the tummy tuck. Even severe cases of diastasis can be corrected with a tummy tuck Arizona, by a qualified plastic surgeon such as Dr. Leber.

The Tummy Tuck Procedure

The tummy tuck Arizona doctors perform begins with an incision made from one hipbone to another, creating a flap of skin. The skin is separated from the abdominal muscles, which are then stitched into place, giving the patient a firmer abdomen. After the muscles are secured, the excess tissue is folded and sutured, and the result of the tummy tuck gives the patient a slimmer waistline and flatter abdomen.
