Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)

At the Plastic Surgery Center in Manhattan and New Jersey, we see many patients who have tried without success to lose that extra paunch of skin and fat on their lower belly. We see this particularly true with women following childbirth or with people who have undergone significant weight loss. Where diet and exercise fail to deliver a sleek, toned abdomen, a tummy tuck often provides the solution for our Manhattan and New Jersey area patients.

During a tummy tuck at our Manhattan or New Jersey practice, the cosmetic surgeon makes an incision beneath the bikini line from hip to hip and a smaller one around the navel. Once the skin and abdominal muscles are separated, the cosmetic surgeon tightens the muscles of the abdomen, folds the skin flap back in place and trims away excess skin. The final incisions can usually be hidden beneath a modest bathing suit or underwear. With a tummy tuck performed by one of our world-renowned cosmetic surgeons, our Manhattan and New Jersey patients, both women and men, enjoy a beautifully flat and sculpted abdomen. In some selected patients, our cosmetic surgeons can utilize a more minimal incision, often eliminating the need to cut around the navel. If you think you might be a good candidate for a tummy tuck, please let us hear from you today.
