Tummy Tuck

If you have loose, sagging skin in your abdominal area, a tummy tuck can help you get a tighter, more toned midsection. There are three main approaches to the tummy tuck procedure: full, extended and mini. Learn about these different tummy tuck procedures and which one would be best for your body and treatment goals. 

If countless hours of crunches haven’t delivered the toned, flat stomach you desire, then a tummy tuck may be a great option for you. During the procedure, Dr. Kleto will tighten loose abdominal muscles and remove excess skin and fat in order to improve the appearance of your abdominal region.

A tummy tuck is a great way to put the finishing touches on your fitness regimen in order to achieve the toned, flat stomach you desire. However, there are certain factors that must be considered when determining the right time to undergo the procedure. One of these factors is whether you are planning on having children in the future.

If you have excess fat that is resistant to diet and exercise, or you have sagging skin or loose abdominal muscles due to pregnancy, the natural aging process or weight loss surgery, a tummy tuck might be right for you.

Pregnancy can take quite a toll on your body. Although some women are able to regain their pre-pregnancy appearance through diet and exercise, many others are left with stretched, sagging skin and fat deposits that seem to resist all of their efforts to get rid of them. As an added frustration, pregnancy tends to stretch out your abdominal muscles, contributing to the “loose,” drooping appearance of skin in the stomach area.
