Tummy Tuck Atlanta – Atlanta Abdominoplasty
The tummy tuck, also called abdominoplasty, is a popular cosmetic surgery procedure. Both men and women find that a tummy tuck can be an effective tool for shaping and sculpting the abdomen and the waist for a better appearance and improved self-esteem.
Sometimes no amount of diet and exercise can create a flat tummy. Abdominoplasty tightens the abdominal muscles and removes the excess fat and skin from the stomach area to create a tighter, slimmer, and a smoother belly. If, like many other patients, you are interested in an overall body rejuvenation, a tummy tuck can be combined with other procedures such as liposuction or breast augmentation for a more attractive figure on the whole.
Patients choose abdominoplasty for a number of reasons, including the following:
• Excess abdominal skin following weight loss
• Weight gain (beer belly or spare tire) from lifestyle choices
• Abdominal fat that is resistant to diet and exercise
• Stretched stomach muscles and skin from pregnancy
• Desire for a thinner overall profile
• Desire to look younger and more fit
• Desire to fit into clothes better
Tummy tuck surgery can be done for cosmetic or rehabilitative reasons. Repair is carried out on the skin, muscle, and fat layers. Liposuction is almost always done in conjunction with the abdominoplasty. Dr. Jones performs six distinct variations of abdominoplasty, depending on the needs and desires of the patient. They range from a no incision type surgery to a total body, or circumferential, abdominoplasty.
Dr. Jones will discuss your concerns with you and explain the details of tummy tuck surgery. There are a number of options to consider, including whether or not another body procedure, such as liposuction or breast augmentation, should be performed at the same time. Dr. Jones will work with you to determine a surgical plan that best suits your needs to create the results that you desire.
