An Abdominoplasty (Tummy tuck) is a surgical method of tightening the abdominal muscles and removing loose and excess skin and fat. Tummy tuck will help you on your way to a flatter, more sculpted stomach.
The abdominal wall may become stretched and weakened during pregnancy or after a significant weight gain. This weakened abdominal muscle may bulge and give the appearance of a fuller stomach. Our patients may also have excess skin and fat from pregancy or a weight loss following Bariatric or Lap Band surgery.
Unfortunately, the skin and weakened abdominal muscles will not significantly improve with sit ups or exercise. A Tummy Tuck can be performed in Denver to improve the appearance of the stomach and often is done as an outpatient procedure.
There may be an occasion where the patient has a mild sagging of the skin and in this case a mini-tummy tuck (mini-abdominoplasty) can be performed to smooth and flatten the abdomen. Dr. Tirre will review your personal goals and based on his examination will determine which method will give you the desired results.
Tummy tuck can be performed at the same time as a Breast Augmentation, Breast Lift and/or Liposuction and is considered part of the popular Mommy Makeover procedure performed here in Denver by Dr. Tirre.
