Our team in NJ believes that no one should ever struggle with loose skin after losing weight or giving birth. With our advanced tummy tuck procedures, we can help you rebuild your confidence by sculpting the midsection of your dreams. Here is a closer look at some of the benefits of a tummy tuck and a few signs that this cosmetic procedure might be right for you.
Dealing with Loose Skin
Many people don’t realize just how difficult it is to get rid of loose abdominal skin. After having a child or losing quite a bit of weight, it could take years for your skin to shrink. Sticking to a healthy diet and losing weight at a steady pace will reduce your risk of excess skin around the midsection, but you might never be able to sculpt the stomach of your dreams on your own. The primary goal of a tummy tuck is to remove and/or tighten the skin on the abdomen and flanks in order to reveal the underlying muscles.
The Basics of a Tummy Tuck
Every single procedure that our team carries out is customized to fit the needs of each individual patient, but most tummy tucks involve the removal and/or tightening of skin and the tightening of the underlying abdominal muscles. Some fat may also be removed during the procedure.
Should I Consider a Tummy Tuck?
Unlike liposuction, the goal of a tummy tuck in NJ isn’t to remove extra abdominal fat. Most patients who have this procedure carried out are already relatively close to their ideal weight and size. A tummy tuck allows us to make subtle cosmetic changes to the midsection to emphasize your figure.
Long-Term Results
This exciting procedure can produce astounding results, and you are going to enjoy your slim new figure for years with the proper aftercare. Patients in NJ who stick to a healthy diet and exercise as often as possible are often able to maintain the results for life.
