Abdominoplasty Spring, TX | Andrew T. Lyos, MD, FACS

Understanding Tummy Tuck Surgery

A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, is a sophisticated body contouring procedure designed to transform the abdominal region. By removing excess skin and fat, and tightening underlying muscle structure, Dr. Lyos can help patients achieve a slimmer, more contoured abdomen.

Procedure Overview

Pregnancy, weight fluctuations, and aging can significantly impact the abdominal area. A tummy tuck addresses these concerns by minimizing stretched skin and restoring muscle tone, resulting in a firmer, more youthful profile.

Tummy Tuck Benefits

• Remove excess and drooping skin
• Eliminate unwanted fat deposits
• Improve stretch mark appearance
• Tighten weakened abdominal muscles
• Create a more contoured waistline

Procedure Types in Spring, TX

Traditional Abdominoplasty

The most comprehensive approach involves a hip-to-hip incision, allowing comprehensive removal of abdominal skin and fat. This technique often requires belly button repositioning for natural results.

Mini Tummy Tuck

An ideal option for patients near their ideal body weight, focusing exclusively on the lower abdomen with minimal intervention and faster recovery.

Extended Tummy Tuck

Designed for patients requiring extensive contouring, this procedure addresses abdominal fat and "love handles" with strategically placed incisions.

Candidacy Considerations

Ideal candidates for a tummy tuck in Spring, TX are individuals who:

• Desire removal of stretched skin and excess abdominal fat
• Maintain a stable, healthy weight
