Tummy Tuck

Tummy Tuck at CHOICE Aesthetics

What is a Tummy Tuck?

A tummy tuck is a cosmetic procedure that focuses on the abdominal region to remove excess fat and skin, while also tightening the underlying muscles. It is ideal for individuals who have loose or sagging skin in their abdomen due to weight fluctuations, pregnancy, or aging. The result is a flatter, firmer midsection that improves both your appearance and confidence.

How Does the BBL Procedure Work?

At CHOICE Aesthetics, we offer personalized tummy tuck procedures tailored to each patient's unique anatomy and goals. During your consultation, our expert surgeons will assess your condition and discuss the best approach to help you achieve optimal results.

The Tummy Tuck Procedure

1

General Anesthesia and Strategic Incisions

At CHOICE Aesthetics, our tummy tuck procedure is performed under general anesthesia to ensure patient comfort. The surgery typically begins with an incision made horizontally between the hips, positioned strategically to remain hidden beneath most clothing and swimwear. In some cases, a second incision may be made around the navel if necessary to remove excess skin from the upper abdomen.

2

Fat Removal and Body Contouring

Once the incisions are made, your surgeon will remove excess fat and skin, tightening the remaining tissue to create a smoother, more toned appearance. Liposuction may also be used during the procedure to enhance the contouring effect by removing stubborn fat deposits around the flanks and lower back.

3

Abdominal Muscle Repair

One key component of the tummy tuck is the tightening of the abdominal muscles. Over time, or due to pregnancy or weight gain, the abdominal muscles can weaken or separate. Our surgeons meticulously suture the muscles back together, creating a firm, supportive core that improves both posture and abdominal appearance.

Incision Closure and Early Recovery

The incisions are then carefully closed with sutures, and drainage tubes may be inserted to prevent fluid buildup during the initial stages of recovery.

Recovery Process

Recovering from a tummy tuck takes time and patience. Most patients will need to rest for at least one to two weeks following the surgery, during which they may experience some discomfort, swelling, and bruising. Pain medication will be prescribed to help manage any discomfort, and a compression garment is typically worn to aid in healing and reduce swelling.

It is important to follow your surgeon’s post-operative instructions carefully to ensure a smooth recovery. Strenuous activities, including exercise, should be avoided for at least four to six weeks, although light walking is encouraged to promote circulation and prevent complications. Drainage tubes, if used, will be removed during a follow-up appointment within the first week or two after surgery.

As the swelling subsides, the results of your tummy tuck will become more apparent. Many patients are thrilled to see a firmer, flatter abdomen and experience a significant boost in self-esteem. You can expect to resume most daily activities within two weeks, but full recovery may take several months as your body continues to heal and adjust to its new shape.
